Memorial Union cancels Thanksgiving dinner buffet

The Wisconsin Union will no longer be serving a Thanksgiving dinner buffet at Memorial Union. However, patrons can still order pre-cooked Thanksgiving turkey dinners with all the trimmings from the catering division from Wednesday, Nov. 3, until Friday, Nov. 19. Pick-up is from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 24, in Tripp Commons in Memorial Union.

The costs of maintaining a high-quality menu and service have increased while the number of guests has dwindled.

Information on ordering the to-go Thanksgiving dinners, is available online. An individual dinner is $8.95; all items will be sold a la carte (by the pound or “each” in the case of turkeys or pies). A family package will also be available. Order by contacting Catering Director Carl Korz at 265-8691 or ckorz@wisc.edu.
