All invited to free community dinner at North Hardin High School Saturday

Community members are invited to an afternoon of food, fellowship, and community spirit at the second Free Community Stone Soup Dinner, to be held Saturday from 2 to 5 p.m. at North Hardin High School.

“There’ll be spaghetti, salad, pizza, sweets, popcorn, and fried chicken on the menu, all made possible through the generosity of local businesses,” said Radcliff resident Pete Countryman at Tuesday’s Radcliff City Council meeting.

Saturday’s dinner comes a few weeks after managers at Little Charlie’s Pizza organized the first dinner in November.

Countryman said the theme for the dinner comes from the European fable of a traveller passing through a village who starts a campfire to cook a soup and other members of the community start contributing.

“The moral of the story is: when you share resources and work together in the community, you can accomplish great things,” Countryman said

The event will also feature toys for kids and photos with the Grinch, Santa and Mrs. Claus, and other fun characters. All are invited to attend. The event is free but donations will be accepted.
