1. As we are all
aware, volunteering during the month of December in support of Toys For Tots,
Shop with a Cop and Coins For Kids requires many hours by both the public at
large and our Detachment members.
2. Our recent
effort to provide Marines at the Wal Mart and Dixie Convention Center went
well. We had 12-13 Marines at 1730 and
most of them remained to the end at 2200.
3. In addition,
there were individual volunteers (4) and Marines (5) at the TFT warehouse
reviewing hundreds of requests for toys and inserting these requests into the
computer. While this administrative
action was taking place toys were being pulled to fill orders previously
approved.
4. Friday December
19th will be spent at the Warehouse fulfilling all requests and preparing them
for delivery. Rick stated that any
Marines that can spend two/three hours
helping them on Friday would be greatly appreciated.
5. We have also
been asked on Friday to provide 7 - 9 Marines at the Dixie Convention Center
during the hours 1530 - 2100. If
possible we need to break that up to three hour shifts. Our coordinator there
will be Hal Alford (632-0439). One
member from each Fire Team would fulfill this requirement.
5. Saturday is
reserved for delivering Toys by ALL HANDS.
A previous email was sent to ALL MARINES concerning Saturday 0915. The
address remains: Waxie Warehouse on 3050
East 450 North just south of Costco.
