Testimonials

Join us this year for an unforgettable Thanksgiving!

A Big Thank You for all you do for the HHI  community, yes I will try and help in 2024, I would like the same assignment as 2023, shuttling people from their cars to the Hudson’s restaurant. I enjoyed driving the large golf cart and talking to the people. I work at our golf course in Indian Land SC as a marshal

Congratulations on another very successful event.  It was absolutely my pleasure and a privilege to volunteer again this year.

My task this year was being a volunteer on the shuttle service. I loved working on that. The driver was excellent. Very kind, very conscious of the safety of the passengers and helpful in any way.  I am disappointed that I have forgotten his name, but he (and the whole shuttle program) was an appreciated element of hospitality for the guests.

Thank you again for all you do.  Have a very happy New Year blessed with good health, much happiness and success.

 Thank you for a beautiful gathering. First but not my last time volunteering for the Annual Community Thanksgiving Dinner. I was volunteering in the kitchen. What a great time working with the crew and Chef. My wife, also was a volunteer in the kitchen, was assigned to cutting the bread. We both have the greatest respect for the owners of Hudson and look forward to Thanksgiving 2024. Bless you for a wonderful event.

Success! It was one of my most memorable Thanksgiving. It was a genuine holiday that brought families, friends, newcomers, and guests together. I really felt blessed to be part of the day. I'll never miss another Hudson's Thanksgiving. Thank you for the opportunity to extend my circle of friends and family.
