>> Restaurants that are open on Thanksgiving
The event will benefit the Hope Foundation for Greater Dayton to provide Thanksgiving meals for 70 families.
“We want this event to be a fun night that gets the community playing games and eating together but at the end of the day, this is about giving back,” said Matthew Sliver, founder of Dayton Inspires.
“We’ll feel that it’s a success when we provide those special holiday meals for families around Dayton who might not otherwise get a holiday meal.”
Tickets are $25 and include a holiday buffet with an optional drink. There will be a cigar bar, give-aways and games provided by Sportcial.
