This group is to facilitate communication and updates regarding our holiday card drives for troops deployed overseas(and occaisional other special projects. We have historically done three card drives per year: Christmas, Valentine's Day and the 4th of July. For Christmas 2006, over 20,000 Christmas cards were sent in, and Valentine's Day, 2007 was a success, also, with over 5,000 cards coming in for our troops!!! The 2007 4th of July card drive resulted in approximately 3,000 cards being shipped overseas. And on December 1, 2007, over 25,400 Christmas cards and letters were shipped to our Heroes in harm's way! Operation Valentine 2008 was overwhelmingly successful as more than 5,320 cards were received and shipped to the Sandbox, with the 4th of July card drive exceeding even that - 5,916 "thank you for freedom!" cards were shipped. For Christmas, 2008, we shipped over 17,637 Christmas and Hanukkah and Holiday cards all over the world!
