| Delectable soups from favorite Provincetown restaurants highlight Souper Saturday, a benefit for Provincetown's remarkable soup kitchen. |
The Soup Kitchen In
Provincetown (SKIP) will host its annual “Souper” Saturday lunch on Saturday,
December 3, from 11:30 AM to 3:30 PM, at Tin Pan Alley, located at number 269
Commercial St, directly across from Town Hall.
More than two-dozen local restaurants and businesses will offer
delicious, hearty soups for a donation of $5 per serving in this
wonderful fundraiser that has become a favorite event during Holly Folly,
PTown’s annual holiday celebration.
Enjoy live music by pianist
Jim Brosseau and other area performers along with your delicious lunch, with
all proceeds helping to provide roughly 13,000 meals for Outer Cape residents
over this coming winter. SKIP merchandise such as T-shirts, caps and mugs will
also be available for purchase.
Weekdays from November
through April, SKIP serves hot, nutritious meals at the United Methodist Church
on Shank Painter Road. Lunch is free and open to all. Guests begin gathering as
early as noon for the 12:30 PM lunch, spending time with friends or
browsing the adjoining thrift shop. Many will linger afterward for socializing amongst a wide cross-section of local residents.
These meals can help to fill
the gap in an economy that stretches the budgets of people who may have little
or no income during the winter months. For others, joining friends for lunch
can provide a feeling of community and a much-needed gathering place in a
season that can feel rather desolate without the pace of the summer and the
crowds in the streets.
Join us at Tin Pan Alley on
Saturday for this great fundraising lunch, and if you’re in town over the
winter, join us weekdays through April at The Soup Kitchen, for a good meal and
a bit of fellowship.
