On November 26, more than two dozen Graton Resort & Casino team members volunteered at the Great Thanksgiving Banquet, serving meals and distributing warm coats to community members celebrating the holiday. The volunteers were part of an effort that served over meals while creating a welcoming, festive atmosphere for local families.

The warm coat distribution was the culmination of a month-long effort by Graton Resort & Casino team members, who collected more than 400 new and gently used coats for men, women, and children. The donations will help local families stay comfortable throughout the winter months.

In addition to the volunteer efforts, Graton Resort & Casino donated 288 frozen turkeys—each weighing approximately 15 pounds—to Redwood Gospel Mission. The donation will provide an estimated 4,300 meals, helping ensure that families throughout Sonoma County can enjoy a traditional Thanksgiving dinner.
