Here's a great thing you can do this Christmas

[eastendpowerstroke]

I just got this e-mail and think it's a great idea so I figured I'd post it here.

 

When doing your Christmas cards this year, take one card and

send it to this address. If we pass this on to all of our friends

and everyone sends one card, think of how many cards these

wonderful special people who have sacrificed so much would get.

Hey Dave, I presented this to the owner of our company. I'm proud to tell you thay we are all going to send cards per your suggestion. Between my 2 shops and soon to be 3 we will be sending out about 60-65 cards thanks to you. /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/notworthy.gif

 

I hope everybody on this Forum does the same. It feels good to help our men and woman doing right by our country. Hopefully they will be back soon with all their loved ones.

 

GOD BLESS AMERICA

Actually, due to post 9/11 security concerns, all cards sent to that address are returned to sender unless it has the name of a soldier on it. However, the American Red Cross will accept cards & notes and resend them to the hospitals if sent to this address:

Thanks Buddy I actually just got that e-mail with the corrected address and was headed here to post it but you beat me.

hopefully it didn't come to late for anybody to send them to the proper address.

Sorry for the confusion guys
