NORWICH — Chenango County teens are invited to celebrate "Friendsgiving" from 6 to 8 p.m. on Monday, November 18 at The Place, located at 22 East Main Street in Norwich.


Attendees can enjoy Thanksgiving food, play a "stuff the turkey" game and trivia, and create a recipe book together.


"I’m encouraging everyone to bring a family recipe or just Google something that you like online so then we can make our own recipe book," explained The Place Teen Program Coordinator Elizabeth Hathaway


Those who would like to attend Friendsgiving can call The Place at 607-336-9696 to let them know they'll be attending.
