CECIL & VANESSA GOODWIN⁠
The Goodwins created the Noel J. Goodwin Scholarship Fund 17 years ago in memory of their son who lost his battle with cancer. Through the scholarship fund, they’ve turned their own tragedy into blessings for others. They’ve helped the most in-need population, including students in their community and within Jefferson County Public Schools. Their work has continued throughout 2020.⁠

If you’re keeping it small at home this year, we encourage you to try some of these ideas to turn your casual Thanksgiving into a Dinner Party! ⁠
⁠
1) Wear your PJs to the table: Putting your stretchy pants on BEFORE you eat dinner makes that second helping a lot more fun, righ? ⁠
⁠
2) Indoor Picnic: Spread a blanket in the Living Room and host a Movie Marathon while you feast! ⁠
⁠
3) Host a Post-Dinner Game Night: This is a great option if you’re going Virtual! ⁠
⁠
4) Make Thanksgiving a Glamping experience: Whether it’s a tent & firepit in your backyard or a Pillow Fort in your Den, make it a cozy experience!
