If at any time this summer you find yourself thinking, "Man, I’ll bet they’re really missing a good ‘ol Snickers Bar or a Little Debbie Swiss Cake Roll right now.".... Well, I would dare say that you probably just hit the nail right on the head. You could have this thought at 8:15 in the a.m. or 9:30 in the p.m. and I can tell you that it will not make any difference. The truth is that at that very moment we WILL MOST CERTAINLY be missing a Snickers bar and ANY Little Debbie product. SOOO...if you get in the mood to send a sugary treat, here’s how you can.
Oh, and don’t get us wrong, letters, postcards and memos from home are the only newspaper that we will have access to. PLEASE send us updates. Feel free to fill us in on the economy or the issues in the Middle East if you like, but what we’ll be more interested in is what’s going on in all your lives. The latest celebrations, tribulations, and inspirations that have filled your weeks. These things help keep us going on rainy days.....
SEND WHATEVER YOU GOT: (keep in mind we have to carry it so only 4 Little Debbies at a time please)
To insure that we get your package/letter please send them to the chosen town no later than the date listed with that town. These "mail-by" dates are figured to allow plenty of time for our schedule fluctuation and still give your package time to reach us.
