Hi Everyone!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow! Just a little over a month away. Just wondered if all the clubs that show they are participating on page 1 of this thread could provide a list of the items being sent. Some already have.

Thanks for the tremendous support you are giving to the event.

Would frisbees be a good idea? OR what about grass skirts? Are there enough grass skirts or coconut bras? Just trying to figure out how the money our club has donated will be best spent.

All of those sound good...Crash's comment to me yesterday was he really wants it to be colorful...(because brown desert and drab military colors are the norm)...so maybe that can give you some good ideas, too.

Inventory from the boat trip donations will be done by this weekend and shipped next week...

Along with the donations of goods...there were also some cash donations and I thought I'd spend that money on about 20 cameras to go along with the other goodies...great work everyone...

[J.LeP]

I got 3 boxes packed today and will try to do the rest tomorrow with the goodies from The Hanover Area Parrot Head Society. I'll need a truck to get them to the post office!
The packing lists will be posted, e-mailed amd included.

I have a question. Someone in our club heard that the troops really wanted some good coffee. So Starbucks donated 20 lbs. - However, it is all beans - not ground. Would the troops have a way of grinding their own beans - or do I need to go back to Starbucks and see if they can grind it for me? Thanks!!!

[crash_davis7]

They don't have a way to grind it here - sorry.
