BATTLE CREEK (WKZO-AM) — Just like the first Thanksgiving, Native Americans will be sharing their bounty a week from Thursday.
For the sixth year, the Notawaseppi Huron band of the Potawatomi, who operate the FireKeepers Casino in Calhoun County, will be donating 1,000 turkeys to local food banks in the region.
The Food Bank of South Central Michigan received 200 birds Monday. Truck loads will also be headed to food banks in Ann Arbor, Flint, Grand Rapids and Fort Wayne.
