At the end of October, the 8th grade students began collecting items that will be donated to our military personnel overseas, in conjunction with their Flight 93 unit. Operation S.O.S. (Support Our Soldiers) is looking for donations in preparation of the 420 care packages that they will be sending out to military personnel for Christmas. These items will be sent to Fort Sill, Okla., where soldiers in the 3rd Battalion 2nd Air Defense Artillery Regiment will be stationed after returning home from Asia. Donations of any of the following items are greatly appreciated:
Toiletry Items: Toothbrush, toothpaste, floss, deodorant, hand or body lotion, Q-tips (small packs), shampoo, non-aerosol sunscreen
Food Items: Microwave popcorn, cereal bars, pop tarts, gum, life savers, hard candy, boxes of hot chocolate, boxes of tea bags
Miscellaneous Items: Crossword books, Sodoku books, books (novels or short stories), magazines, playing cards, Ziploc sandwich bags, tissues (small packs)
Donations will be accepted through Thursday November 17th. Thank you in advance for supporting this project.
