Well, 14 days and counting and the list of attendees is triple what I expected. We're up to 42 people & 24 Cobras. It's a testament to the generosity of the Texas Cobra Club. To date we have the following on the donation list.
Fleece blankets being made: Army, Marines, Cowboys & Texans
Goodie bags donated by O'Reilly Auto parts
Assorted baked goods: Cookies, brownies.
Letters & Christmas cards by Girl Scouts, Brownies & students
A very large assortment of shop supplies: Complete list to follow
And of course, one size fits all: Cash
There are quite a few people planning on trailering their cars and spending the night. Can someone help with hotel recommendations for the area?
In addition, the word has gotten around BAMC and the head count of attendees, soldiers 30, admin 20 has exceeded their wildest dreams. The soldiers are really pumped about this event. Janis, the main organizer at Operation Comfort calls often and can't thank everyone enough for what we're doing. Thanks again to everyone for committing to help out, whatever way that is, it's greatly appreciated.
