OSWEGO – Canale’s Restaurant will be providing the next Salvation Army Guest Chef dinner on November 14, 4:30 to 6 p.m.
They will be serving spaghetti and meatballs, tossed salad with their house Italian dressing, and bread and butter. Desserts and beverages will be provided by members of the advisory board.
The dinner will be at the Salvation Army Worship and Service Center, 73 W. Second St.
This will be the final Guest Chef Dinner for this year.
The Guest Chef dinners are organized by the advisory board and offered to the community to raise funds for support of the services of the Army throughout Oswego County.
There is ample parking and the building is fully accessible.
Canale’s Restaurant has been operated in Oswego by the family since 1954, using recipes that originated four generations ago with Anna Canale in Morolo, Italy.
They offer homemade authentic Italian cuisine, served in a traditional family dining atmosphere. Many of their specialties are also available in food stores.
The Guest Chef Dinners are organized by the advisory board of The Salvation Army of Oswego County and offered to the community to raise funds for fresh-cooked meals and food pantry services in both Fulton and Oswego as well as other services provided to individuals and families in need throughout the county.
In September, the Corps provided 1,356 soup kitchen meals in Oswego and 864 in Fulton.
It provided 68 Oswego households with groceries for 1,728 meals and 136 Fulton households with groceries for 3,591 meals.
It also distributed about 1,800 loaves of bread. Fifteen households purchased low-cost foods through the Food Sense program of the Food Bank of Central New York.
The Corps operates a Bridging the Gap program that teaches life skills and gives a second chance to young people that have made poor decisions.
The first Guest Chef dinner for 2018 will be provided through the generosity of Rudy’s Lakeside Drive-in and is tentatively scheduled for March 8, 2018, depending upon the weather.
Planning is under way for this year’s Red Kettle Campaign.
The need is to raise more than $100,000.
There will be opportunities for individuals and families, as well as organizations, businesses, and groups of all kinds to lend a hand.
The kettles will be out from mid-November through Christmas Eve.
Small counter-top kettles are available for business locations.
