ALTON - Tabitha Craig-Robinson and Dan Robinson, owners of Tab's Cafe in Alton, are preparing to serve a Thanksgiving meal and trimmings to individuals in need on Monday, Nov. 25, 2024. The restaurant is closed that day to provide a turkey dinner, complete with dessert, to 80 selected individuals from the Salvation Army. Anyone who receives the meal will have to go through the Salvation Army for tickets. The meal service will begin at noon and run until 5 p.m., with guests divided into groups of 20 for hourly servings. Each hour will accommodate a new group, ensuring that all attendees receive a warm meal. Tickets for the event can be obtained from the Salvation Army, which began distributing them earlier this week. David Thomason, a friend of the Robinsons, praised their initiative. "This is the only restaurant business in the Alton area doing this, I think," he said. "I think it is amazing. They are going to do this at Christmas time, too." While tickets for the event are limited,

Welcome to another installment of our series, 'This Day in History,' where we take a closer look at significant events that have shaped our world. One of the most significant events that occurred on November 22nd was the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in 1963. This tragic event shocked the nation and the world, marking a pivotal moment in American history. Kennedy was shot while riding in a motorcade through Dallas, Texas, and his death was met with an overwhelming wave of grief. The assassination led to a series of investigations, including the Warren Commission, which concluded that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. However, conspiracy theories surrounding the event continue to thrive to this day, fueling debates about the circumstances of his death and its lasting impact on American politics.

SPRINGFIELD – The Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) reminds firearm deer hunters that mandatory check stations will be open this year in counties where chronic wasting disease (CWD) has been detected. The 2024 Illinois firearm deer season dates are Nov. 22-24 and Dec. 5-8, 2024. Check stations are used by IDNR to monitor CWD in Boone, Carroll, DeKalb, Grundy, Jo Daviess, Kane, Kankakee, Kendall, LaSalle, Livingston, McHenry, Ogle, Stephenson, Will, and Winnebago counties.
