Throughout the history of Lincoln’s Zonta Club the annual turkey
dinner has been a staple to Lincoln’s community wide activities and
is a major fundraiser for the club. Profits from the turkey dinner
are used to fund local scholarships and service projects, and in
recent years have ranged from $4,000 to over $5,000. An estimated
$60,000 in local scholarships has been given out by the Zonta Club
of Lincoln over the years.

Over the past 51 years the turkey dinner has grown in size
and moved to various locations around Lincoln, from the Knights
of Columbus Hall to Carroll Catholic School, and eventually to
Lincoln Community High School where the dinner continues to make
its home.
This year the Zonta Club Turkey Dinner hopes to continue in its
tradition to serve over 1,000 people in Lincoln; so come and join in
this year’s turkey dinner!
