February 3 MOPS Meeting: Service Project

During our creative activities time at our February 3rd meeting we are going to assemble boxes for our service men and women that are currently deployed. Amy Yang’s (fellow MOPS mom) husband and the 5 men that are with him are our priority and if we can do more we will support those of Park Chapel that are also deployed. If anyone else in our group has immediate family currently deployed we would love to add them to our list!!

Boxes from USPS will be supplied and we are asking for all moms to bring as many items that they can to our Feb.3 meeting. We will pack as much in each box as we can, as it is a flat rate mailing fee no matter what the weight of the box. If you would like to donate for shipping just let us know!


Possible Items:
Inspirational letters or cards of well wishes,
baby wipes (soft packages for packing),

Yummy Stuff :
CHOCOLATE, candy, gum, mints
(this helps to pass the time on LONG all-night patrols,
individually wrapped candies are great!!) , salty snacks (individually wrapped crackers, reg. flavored Pringles,
flavored beef jerky other than original, etc.),
powered pre-sweetened drink mixes (like the tubes of
Crystal Lite and Power—type drinks to be added to their BORING bad tasting water)

Thanks so much for helping !
