Good snowy/icy afternoon!! Even though this is HHAFFA's "slow" time of year--you can still find plenty of opportunities to volunteer!
--HHAFFA Quarterly meeting is scheduled for Thursday, March 6 at 7 pm in the HHAFFA office (620 H St, Bedford). All members of HHAFFA should plan to attend, because we will be discussing the future of HHAFFA. All interested parties need to attend, so that all ideas may be discussed and decisions made by a majority of our members!
--RESCHEDULED: The next MOMS (Mothers of Military Servicemembers) meeting will be held this TUESDAY, February 26th at 4 pm at Wendy's in Bedford. We will be discussing, among other things, different meeting times and/or places, so that more people may be able to participate. Please come to the meeting to share your ideas, and if unable to attend the meeting--please email me with your ideas!
--It's Girl Scout Cookie Time! Be on the look out for Girl Scouts selling cookies at WalMart, KMart, Family Video, Buehlers and Jay C Plus, etc. (Girl Scouts will be at Family Video on Saturday March 1st from 4 pm to 6 pm--get a movie and a box of Thin Mints!) Many Girl Scout troops will be seeking donations for our troops at that time! All cookies donated will be shipped by HHAFFA to troops serving in war zones!
--The 2008 Relay for Life (raising funds for cancer research) of Lawrence County is in the planning stages. HHAFFA will be participating, but we need YOU! Please plan on either participating by walking or by sponsoring a walker! The event is scheduled for June 20 at the Parkview Track! I will pick up our Team Packet on March 4th--I'll have more details by then!
--Planning to send a care package to a US military service member serving abroad? Send it after March 3 to take advantage of a new flat-rate box from the US Postal Service that is 50 percent larger and delivered for $10.95 to an APO/FPO address. More info may be found on the HHAFFA blog!
--Saturday, March 8th, a flea market is scheduled to be held at the Lawrence County Fairgrounds from 8 am to 2 pm. HHAFFA will have a table set up as another way to spread knowledge of our organization throughout the community. We will have magnets, t-shirts, sweatshirts and signs for sale, and we will be there to gather names and answer questions. If anyone would like to volunteer to man (or woman) the table for a couple of hours--please let me know!
Hope to see you soon!
Please continue to keep all our troops and their families in your thoughts and prayers!
God Bless Our Troops!
