Troop Support Update – January 2011
Frank Colucci volunteered at the December meeting to be my backup for collecting donations at each meeting. My string of absences in the second half of 2010 understandably led to some confusion as to whether the club was still actively pursuing a Support the Troops program. Frank and I will ensure that a box for donations is clearly marked at each meeting. There is a new contact as of December 2010 at Forward Operating Base (FOB) Speicher in Iraq. As mentioned at the December meeting, a lack of current contacts in Iraq had interrupted what had been our continuous support beginning in 2006, so a current contact is a welcome development.
A reminder – we can't ship any flammable materials, so no model airplane cement or paints with a flammable base such as enamels, lacquers, and some acrylics (Tamiya, for example). Frequently requested materials are paint brushes and automotive kits.
Thanks in advance for your support.
