Hey! We still have about 6 soldiers that need packages for Christmas...We started with 67...and all are selected but SIX. How wonderful is that? We would hate to leave these six out. Come help us out here. Jo

Actually, I thought these folks were in need of a pen-pal, not specifically a Christmas package. Am I wrong? or did I miss something or misread?

well...they signed up for pen-pals and we just turned it into packages...won't they be tickled? You don't have to send gifts though...Jo

well, I'd like to but dont think I have enough time and money. Maybe I can send something. Would it be normal postage for packages, too, like the letters?

Vicki....I just got 3 boxes from the post office...you can STUFF them full for $7.70 postage..priority mail...great deal..something new too...They can be used for APO's and FPO's, but not to private individuals overseas...just the military...and here in the USA.

I know what you mean about money! But since we all draw names in our family, I only have one adult (and 2 children's) gifts to buy...so I put it on 3 soldiers.

If you find that you can't send packages...let me know and I'll try to get some one to co-penpal on yours. I'm just elated that we have them all with a pen pal!! Jo
