Packages for Our Troops

All,

My wife has begun corresponding with memebers of our Armed Forces in Iraq. We have been sending over boxes of items that all of us take for granted. It amazing what our government does not provide for our Brave Troops. Little items like Socks, Popcorn, Movies (DVD's), etc are unavailable except for the help they get from us. I am wondering if you would mind us doing a collection at the GSC Shows of items that we will then box and ship to our forces. We are supporting the 10th Mountain but would love to open this up to local Guard units from your areas.

Let me know what you think.

You can email donna at donna@piratept.com for information on this great cause

Sounds like a great cause, feel free to spread the word and collect at any event you attend. If you post which ones you will be at, maybe people will bring donations for you?

We also welcome any Local Units you may want to help. Like I said , we are supporting the 10th Mountain. ****Lang started this in UpState NY and got my wife in touch with a Female soldier in IRAQ. We have been trading email and it is AMAZING to me with all the money we spend, we cannot give them enough clean socks or underwear. No Popcorn, etc. So we have been sending them boxes full of these items
and have gotten some pictures back. In fact if you go to this website you can see some of the pictures and a RUG they sent to ****as thanks !

It has made us feel good being able to help ! Its there sacrifice and the one you made that allows my children to grow up here in peace and we need to help them. The show by Dream Cruisers is another great cause also ! We look forward to supporting there effort.
