OKMULGEE, Oklahoma – The Muscogee (Creek) Nation is holding a drive through food giveaway on Nov. 19.

Starting at 4 pm today citizens can pull up in their vehicles to their pickup locations for contactless food pick up.

Staff members of the MCN Employment and Training office spent the day putting food packages together for citizens.

Other sites include the community centers in Bristow, Dewar, Eufaula, Holdenville, Muskogee, Okemah and Tulsa.

“We are also working with the MCN Transit,” Josie said. “They are delivering packages to some homebound elders.”

Josie also mentioned that students from Beggs High School helped in the prepping the day prior to the event to help obtain community service hours.

Turkeys were delivered to the sites early today to be dispersed.

“We got turkeys, canned chicken, canned tuna, canned vegetables, and fresh vegetables,” Josie said.

Citizens must have proof of citizenship to receive a food package. Limit one per household.

Recipients may retrieve packages for others with proof of household’s citizenship.

    Okemah was out in less than an hour, we were told. Got there around 5:45 pm and the center was completely closed down. And now the next drive t read where the communities are only servicing those that live in their area. Live out of the 8 counties in Oklahoma City but we are counted and expected to vote. Why isn’t the Creeks in Oklahoma City offered the services to? Why can’t they take away 10 to 20 boxes of food from all the other centers and give to Oklahoma City to receive?
