How long does it take to get a meal? It varies. During busy times we ask for patience so that everyone may access a meal. Our goal is to keep wait time to 30 minutes or less, but we can’t guarantee a specific wait time.

Will there be a resource fair? Yes. We encourage all attendees to stop by the resource fair located within the arena. 

Can I pick a meal up for a friend? Yes, if you have a friend or family member who needs a meal but is unable to make it to the turkey drive, you can pick up one extra meal for that household.
