The North Lansing Auxiliary Election Day Dinner and Supper is a tradition that spans well over a century. This Tuesday hundreds of voters were served a dinner of fried chicken, mashed potatoes, biscuits, gravy, squash, beet salad, cabbage salad, and sweetbreads. For supper they got all that plus ham. And, of course, pie. Lots and lots of pie! Volunteers served 540 meals Tuesday (208 for dinner and 332 for supper), a great number for an off-year election. All the money stays in the community, purchasing supplies for the fire station, providing scholarships, help for the Salvation Army, food pantries, Loaves and Fishes, bereavement dinners, and people in need.
