Doors open on Thanksgiving at 11:00 a.m. with dinner being served until 7:00 p.m. a cash bar will be made available.

A plated traditional Thanksgiving dinner from 11AM until approx. 7 PM that day. 

There is no charge for the meal but we ask for donations to charity.  ALL proceeds go to Habitat for Humanity and Destin Harvest (split 50/50).

This will mark the twenty first year Habitat for Humanity Okaloosa will coordinate volunteers to act as wait and restaurant staff to serve Thanksgiving dinner to locals and tourists at Harbor Docks in Destin.  The annual Thanksgiving event has become a cherished tradition to families along the Emerald Coast both as guests and volunteers. 

Melissa Forte, Community Outreach Director for Okaloosa Habitat said, “For thirteen years I’ve been blessed to be a part of this Thanksgiving Day event.  It has been incredibly fulfilling to witness the development of volunteers over the years. Children, who started out rolling silverware while their parents served in various positions, are now young adults and wait tables for guests or work in the kitchen for the day. They have learned the value of serving their community as their families continue to give time to help Habitat every year.”  In 2014, our 20^th anniversary of the event, nearly 200 volunteers came from eight different states with the furthest 1,900 miles away in Utah. 

Owner of Harbor Docks, Charles Morgan, supports the community in a variety of areas throughout the year, but each Thanksgiving he partners with Habitat to assist in helping relieve substandard living conditions in Okaloosa County. 

Dinner is offered complimentary to guests with the option to make a donation as a gesture to support the mission of Habitat Okaloosa.  Volunteers served 2005 meals locals and tourists while raising more than $22,000 during Thanksgiving last year.
