Hunger Homeless Meal
Hard Rock Biloxi partnered with Back Bay Mission in November for the 16th annual Hunger Homeless Meal. Hard Rock prepared a full Thanksgiving meal complete with turkey and pie. The volunteers were happy to be back inside this year after two years of serving the meal outside in to-go containers. The tables were full of fellowship as those in need enjoyed a hot meal on a cold day. Hard Rock served more than 200 plates.
Treasure Bay crewmembers didn’t forget about our furry friends during the holiday festivities. Crewmembers collected supplies for the Humane Society of South Mississippi and Jackson County Animal Shelter. Donations included blankets, mattress toppers, towels, pet food, treats, peanut butter, and food and water bowls. Crewmembers Starlyn Calhoun and Shane Seymour organized the drive.
