Tipsee Spirits & Miami Gardens Host 6th Annual Drive-Thru Turkey Giveaway In Miami Gardens

Turkeys will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis, while supplies last. This year, Tipsee and its partners plan to distribute hundreds of turkeys. This party in the parking lot will include sounds from DJ Tight, a local celebrity DJ and free drinks from Coke Florida.

"I've lived in Miami Gardens all my life, and this community has supported my family's business for nearly 30 years. When I looked at our plaza, I saw a place that needed hope, and I wanted to do something small to give back. Six years ago, the City answered right away, and they've stood with us every year since. Seeing neighbors drive through our parking lot, smile, and head home with a turkey for their Thanksgiving table is why we do this. We're grateful to Councilman Wilson, The Resource Room, and every sponsor and volunteer who makes it possible," said Mark Carrie, Owner/Business Operations Manager of Tipsee Spirits & Wine.

Tipsee Spirits & Wine has been part of the Miami Gardens community since 1997. The giveaway began to show appreciation to the neighbors who have supported the business for decades, and it has grown into an annual tradition. The holidays can be a difficult time for many families, and the event is meant to ease some of that burden with a little extra gratitude and cheer.
