This is one of the most beautiful holidays of all. The meaning of Thanksgiving is the expression of our gratitude to others and God for the good that has come to us. Our forefathers, the men and women, who first began to settle this wild land, met with great hardships that are difficult to imagine. The simplicity of a meal to restore body and soul was felt so deeply that for hundreds of years its meaning is still celebrated. It is a serious and light hearted day. In the Village you may bump into Tom Turkey who, with his friends, is giving out, free candy, balloons, and cider to all who want to talk to Tom Turkey.
