Riverton Community Thanksgiving Meal: Celebrate Together at the Table

Riverton, WY - The Riverton Community Thanksgiving Meal welcomes everyone to come together and celebrate around the table this Thanksgiving Day. Coordinated by dedicated volunteers, this long-standing community tradition ensures that no one spends the holiday without a warm meal or friendly company.

This year’s event focuses on the in-person Community Thanksgiving Meal, with expanded transportation options through WRTA to help ensure everyone who wants to attend can join. The project includes three components: the Thanksgiving Food Box Giveaway, a limited number of Hot Meal Deliveries, and the in-person Community Meal at the Fremont Center.

1. Thanksgiving Food Box Giveaway

The RHS Key Club will once again host their annual Thanksgiving food box distribution on Saturday, November 22 at 10 a.m. at Riverton High School, 2001 West Sunset Drive.
 Distribution is drive-thru, first-come, first-served, one box per vehicle. Each box contains all the essentials for preparing a Thanksgiving meal at home.

2. Hot Meal Deliveries (Limited to 100 Meals)

Hot Thanksgiving meal deliveries are reserved only for individuals who truly cannot attend the in-person meal, including seniors, those with mobility challenges, and others unable to leave their homes.

A total of 100 delivered meals will be available and will be delivered between 10 a.m. and noon on Thanksgiving morning.

To request a meal delivery, please call the Riverton Senior Center at 307-856-6332.

3. Community Thanksgiving Meal - Our Main Event

The heart of the project is the in-person Community Thanksgiving Meal, and everyone is invited.

Join us Thanksgiving Day from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Fremont Center, 1010 Fairgrounds Drive for a full Thanksgiving spread, warm conversation, and a joyful community atmosphere.

This is the primary focus of this year’s efforts, and organizers encourage all who are able to attend in person.

Transportation

Thanks to WRTA, transportation to and from the meal is greatly expanded this year. To arrange a ride, simply call the Riverton Senior Center at 307-856-6332.

RSVP: Not required, but helpful for planning. RSVPs can be made through the Senior Center.
