At left, Giving Thanks 2006 in St. Marys served free meals to several hundred people Thursday including Grace Young and her son, Tim. Penni Carroll, the Giving Thanks turkey for the sixth year, lost her feathers Wednesday night when her original turkey costume was stolen from her car. Astonishingly she was able to round up another costume Thursday morning from a relative in Vandalia. "We met in Sidney and got the costume. Isn't it amazing we could even find a backup turkey suit on such short notice?" said Carroll, adding she hopes the turkey-napper will return the original costume that was especially made for Giving Thanks.
