Seating is arranged with five chairs per table to facilitate social distancing.

Shields will be up at the counters, said Major Barbra Wehnau.

The Salvation Army canceled the traditional meal the day before Thanksgiving in 2020 because of COVID-19 pandemic and has served its daily meals though the front door, but now “we’re trying to work back inside,” Wehnau said.

“Its’ been hard on people,” Wehnau said about providing meals for people who remain outdoors. “It’s cold, and it’s wet.”
