INSIDE Staff photo by Kathy Aney The Archer family — parents, Adam and Rachel, and daughters Jules and Riley — deliver a Thanksgiving meal to an apartment dweller as part of the free community Thanksgiving dinner at Hermiston High School. Diners donate money to local food pantry By ANTONIO SIERRA East Oregonian Pilot Rock is normally considered a sleepy town, but the Thanksgiving Day scene in the downtown area was practically catatonic. What wasn’t already closed shut- tered early — Coffee Station No. 1 was closed by 9 a.m., the Family Foods grocery store was done by the early afternoon and anyone who wanted to pump gas at the Shell gas station would have to do so themselves. Instead of shortened operating hours however, Archie’s Restaurant at 194 Main Street offered a special service: a free Thanksgiving meal. For three hours Thursday, co-owners Daniel Contway and Richard Carnes offered turkey, mashed potatoes and a full Thanksgiving spread to anyone who stopped by. Despite not opening until noon, the Archie’s staff had been working since 6 a.m. to get the meal ready. As the diners started to trickle in, Contway greets most of them by their fi rst name. Now in its seventh year, Contway said the Archie’s Thanksgiving meal started as a way to offer some sort of Staff photo by Kathy Aney Richard Carnes, co-owner of Archie’s Restaurant in Pilot Rock, trans- fers steaming turkey to the buffet table. The meal was free, but diners could donate to the Pilot Rock Food Pantry. service to travelers who couldn’t fi nd anything else open on Thanksgiving. The meal evolved further when Archie’s partnered with the Pilot Rock Food Pantry in its second year. Archie’s would still serve a Thanksgiving meal for free, but patrons would be asked to pay it forward and donate to the food pantry. Although donating was completely voluntary, the glass vase where donations were accepted already had a hefty amount. Contway said Archie’s had already collected $860 by the time the restaurant opened on Thursday, which meant it was on track to surpass last year’s $1,200 total.
