The 18th annual Lima Community Christmas Dinner to be held at the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 1275 is being moved from this Sunday, Christmas Day to Sunday, January 8th. A local favorite, the meal of turkey, ham, and mashed potatoes is free of charge but below-zero wind chills and tricky travel conditions are forcing the change.
Many are upset we don’t have a white Christmas this year, but this warm sunny day has paid dividends for the Lima Community Christmas Dinner. As hundreds showed out for a free meal.
If you walked into the VFW Post 1275 on Christmas Day, it was a packed house for the three hours dinner was being served. A much larger crowd turned out in 2019 than in recent years. One volunteer thought the weather might have something to do with it or it could just be the simple fact it’s a meal that brings people together.
