An annual event in Reeds Spring is getting help from a local organization.

In a release, the Rotary Club of Table Rock Lake is donating $500 to help Shirley Mease put together the annual Community Thanksgiving Dinner.

Mease and her family started the dinner in 2009 to give a meal to people that didn't have a place to celebrate the holiday. This year's free event will be from 12:00 to 2:00 pm at the Reeds Spring Intermediate School Cafeteria.

A full story on this year's event and the background on its development by reporter AJ Fahr can be found on the Branson Tri-Lakes News Website.
