In the fall of 1621, the Pilgrims, early settlers of Plymouth Colony, held a three-day feast to celebrate a bountiful harvest, an event many regard as the nation’s first Thanksgiving. The legacy of thanks and the feast have survived the centuries, as the event became a national holiday in 1863 when President Abraham Lincoln proclaimed the last Thursday of November as a national day of thanksgiving.

And, though a recently released Brookings Institution study found that the economic climate of the metro St. Louis area has improved in the last year, many area Hazelwood familiesare still feeling the pinch during this holiday shopping season.
