NATCHEZ — Approximately 20 volunteers worked at the Natchez Stewpot on Thanksgiving morning to serve approximately 400 Thanksgiving meals to elderly, shut-ins and less-fortunate people.

Stewpot cook of 28-years, Johnnie Coleman, said that on a scale of 1-to-10 for busyness, “I’ll give it a 15,” as compared to past Thanksgivings.

Stewpot volunteers said they appreciate recent donations and hope for more to help them through the holiday season.
