The post office picked up 170 of our shipping cartons immediately after the packing party. The remaining cartons will be shipped to our soldiers overseas in the next few weeks.
Our special thanks to Sgt. Schumpert and the six Army recruits who worked so hard at the packing party. And thanks to The Marketing Arm for use of their warehouse.
Our next big packing party is April 28 with a "Texas" theme. Some of the specific items we are trying to gather include chips, salsa, Texas-themed items (including pro or college teams), pop top cans of jalapenos, microwaveable queso, bluebonnet seeds, snacks and toiletries.
Below are some photos of our packing party. Thanks to all who volunteered.
Two assembly lines prepped before the packing party. A second assembly line of tables is hidden by the tall row of boxes. |
Our great Army volunteers! |
