Gather addresses of soldiers from Hancock county or with family in Hancock county and send in an e-Mail to the Peck family, Shondra or me.
We also collect and send coupons to the soldiers to use at the PX --- even expired ones!
Magazines are also sent.
It would be greatly appreciated if girls could have hand made cards, thank yous, a personal note, etc. to put in the boxes being shipped.
