Thank you so much to New England Wooden Ware for donating the boxes for our stateside packages that they print our OWC logo on.
A huge thank you goes out to the American Legion Post 193 especially Karin Wyson and all of the bartenders who put together boxes and collected donations for our Holiday Drive and allowing us storage space and the use of the hall.
To our Board Members who stepped up to help run this drive while we were out of state, we are deeply indebted to you. You did awesome Bridget Marinelli & Ann Marie Slomcheck. Thank you to those who stepped up to assist them as well.
Sending healing thoughts and energy to Joni Gorecki.
