SALUTE OUR SOLDIERS

The theme for November's pack meeting is "Soldier Salute". Through the Scout office we have found a platoon in Iraq that is desperate need of some TLC. Most of the men (young at that) in this platoon are not getting letters from home and any kind of packages from home. So, we are going to help them.

We are looking for donations......These are some of the things these soldiers could use. Any quantity is great. We will be taking these items to the Scout office where they will be sending them out to them.

Snacks of any kind that won't melt
Tuna
peanut butter, jelly, pretzels, candy gum, crackers etc.
toilet paper (pretty pathetic that it is not being supplied for them)
flavored drink mix (koolaid, crystal light)
shaving supplies, deodorant (no aerosol spray), hand sanitizer, chap stick, sun screen, shampoo, toothpaste
paper back books, magazines, puzzle books (Sudoku, word searches)

If you have items you want to donate, call Karen or Alan Beagley to come get them OR bring them to the Beagley's home.

We will be sorting them at pack meeting in November.....November 24th.
