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...
 

OCTOBER 2006 PACKAGES

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:

Hello,
Wanted to thank you for the package myself and my squad appreciate it.  THANK YOU!!
