Supervisor Glover, Assemblyman Grayson Hold 28th Annual Operation Gobble Event

On Friday, Contra Costa County Board of Supervisor Federal Glover and Assemblyman Tim Grayson teamed up with Golden State Water to distribute 200 turkeys for the holidays to help families in need.

Golden State Water’s Operation Gobble program will distribute more than 8,000 Thanksgiving turkeys throughout the month of November to nonprofit organizations that benefit local families and individuals with limited resources.  Since the program’s inception in 1990, Golden State Water has already provided approximately 232,000 turkeys through partnerships with elected officials and community organizations.

The event was held at the Ambrose Community Center in Bay Point, CA.

“Operation Gobble has become an important part of the holiday season for all of our employees who understand the significant impact a warm Thanksgiving meal can make for our neighbors that have limited resources,” said Ronald Moore, Golden State Water’s Operation Gobble project leader.  “We appreciate the partnership of our elected officials and community organizations who work closely with us to ensure the turkeys find their way to those who need them most.”
