October 2006 Packages
HAPPY HALLOWEEN
We are very grateful for the second year in a
row to Beth McCormack (rollergirl)and Tom
Hamill (member of Run DMC??). Their
annual Halloween party raised $1,550 for Pack It
Up. They can choose any charity, yet for
the 2nd year in a row have chosen Pack It Up.
THANK YOU...

Our October packages went out to three groups
and were received in Iraq. We sent to
Capt Krahulec for the 2nd month and have two
new contacts - SPC Estes and SSG Brown.
You can find out more about them on the left.
We sent our usual assortment of snacks, candy,
gum and magazines, along with microwaveable
meals (to Capt Krahulec), powdered drinks for
their water bottles, loads of greeting cards and
Christmas/Holiday cards, (all of the
following donated at the Rhody's Run) Dunkin
Donuts coffee, Footballs, Basketballs, long
sleeved sports tshirts and disposable cameras.
See pictures below
Next month, we look forward to taking on two
more contacts, CPL Frederick L Gilmetti Jr,
USMC and Captain Bob Lynch, USMC
It appears that during the holiday season, we
will have 5 separate groups going, which
is fantastic!
We received a quick email from our newest
contact, SPC Pete Estes:
