Carson authority announces mayor’s turkey giveaway, Winterfest and partner events
Summary
Board members announced a mayor's turkey and food giveaway planned for Nov. 23 at the Carson Pavilion (ID and Carson residency required), a Winterfest on Dec. 5 at Veterans Park, and a separate Nov. 15 drive‑through turkey giveaway organized by Vice Chair Hicks at Prevailing in Christ Ministry.
Board members used the communications portion of the meeting to announce several upcoming community events, including a mayor's turkey and food giveaway and a year‑end Winterfest.
A board member speaking for the mayor and local partners said the mayor's turkey and food giveaway is scheduled for Nov. 23 at the Carson Pavilion (described in the meeting as located between the Target and a dental office). Organizers said residents must bring ID and proof of Carson residency; the speaker said the first 500 residents will receive either a turkey or a gift card. The speaker corrected an earlier detail in the discussion and confirmed the event time as 1 p.m.
The Carson Winterfest was announced for Dec. 5 at Veterans Park; the city and the Carson Citizens Cultural Arts Foundation are listed as supporters.
Vice Chair Hicks announced a separate annual turkey giveaway on Nov. 15 at Prevailing in Christ Ministry, 1609 East Del Amo Boulevard, from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. The Hicks event will be a drive‑through distribution and also requires proof of Carson residency.
Board members also thanked staff for recent events; the chair said an interfaith prayer breakfast drew 240 attendees and described a tree‑planting at Anderson Park in memory of a family member.
Organizers asked residents to watch for follow‑up announcements with any additional eligibility details.
