Dinner On Us!
Main Ave. between Church St. and Elm St.
Thurs., 5pm
“Dinner On Us” is one of the community’s favorite annual Pumpkinfest events! This FREE
dinner provided to the community is sponsored by Zeeland businesses and prepared and
served by community leaders and business owners/employees. It’s their way of giving back
to the community that supports their businesses year round.
The first 1500 people who attend are provided this FREE meal as a way to reinforce our
pride in this community and to thank residents and guests of Zeeland for doing business
here. Enjoy a large pork wing provided by The Farmhouse, chips donated by AD Bos,
bread sticks from Pizza Hut, water compliments of Hutt Trucking and paddle pops
prepared by Frank’s Restaurant and donated by Zeeland BPW.
Please enjoy “Dinner On Us” as a thank you to our community for your support!
