Last Wednesday, on Thanksgiving Eve, a group of volunteers gathered at the Tama Civic Center to hand out some delicious birds. Sponsored by Iowa Premium, dozens of turkeys were given out to local families to brighten their holidays. Boxes and boxes of the mouth-watering fowl were emptied out of a truck onto locals' dinner tables. PHOTO BY MICHAEL D. DAVIS

Tama Mayor Brian Hanus, along with a handful of volunteers, gave out a truckload of frozen turkeys ahead of last week's holiday. As families drove up one by one, Mayor Hanus and the others handed the birds in through the car windows. PHOTO BY MICHAEL GOBBLE GOBBLE DAVIS
