WASHINGTON — A Thanksgiving week tradition in Ward 8 doubled as a tribute on
Tuesday, as thousands of residents waited in line for free turkeys that the late
Marion Barry helped provide.
Barry championed the turkey giveaway nine years ago, and this year residents of
Ward 8 lined up for a total of 3,500 turkeys and 40,000 pounds of vegetables.
Today's Thanksgiving turkey
giveaway in Ward 8 is doubling as a tribute to the late Marion Barry.
