For every new ‘Like’ the Goodwin Chevrolet Mazda, Goodwin’s Volvo or Goodwin Chevrolet Buick page receives on facebook from October 4-31, $1 will be donated to the Maine affiliate of this breast cancer awareness charity up to $500. Not a facebook user but still want to donate? Visit any branch of the Goodwin Motor Group with your charitable contribution. Call 207-729-1611 or log on to goodwinmotorgroup.com for locations.

Old Orchard Beach United Methodist Church 7th Annual Thanksgiving Dinner

 

 

The Old Orchard Beach United Methodist Church will be holding their 7th Annual Thanksgiving Day Dinner and Delivery Service and they are looking for donations and volunteers. The church plans to serve close to 300 meals on Thanksgiving Day throughout the Saco Bay area. That means they need a lot of volunteers and a lot of food.

If you would like to help them cook, clean, drive, deliver, pack, serve, prepare, or share in the meal they can certainly use the help. Plans are still being made, but updates as to what they will need are going to be posted on their website and Facebook page.

The meal itself is a free Thanksgiving Day meal and will be served at the OOB United Methodist Church from 11:30 – 2:00. The church also offers rides to and from the meal for people living in either OOB, Saco, or Biddeford.
