As Americans kick off spooky season preparations and approach Columbus Day weekend, our Northern neighbors are sitting down and giving thanks on Monday, October 9.
Chicago’s Canadian community found a way to celebrate the yearly harvest and bring the tradition to the Midwest. On Sunday, October 8, from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m., Canadians will gather at 420 E. Waterside Drive, above Chicago’s Lakeshore East Park, and bring thanks with the community through delicious food, fun and gratitude.
The in-person event is open to everyone and hopes to provide a warm Canadian spirit with traditional Thanksgiving dishes. The dinner will be a potluck style feast, kindly requesting participants bring food dishes, drinks and chairs along with them. guests are asked to register and pay $10 to cover the cost of the turkey.
Grab your loved ones and celebrate the holiday of thanks with your Canadian friends and neighbors!
