Good morning spouses!
First I would like to thank all that donated backpacks, and all those who came out to help stuff and help at Operation Homefront's Back to School Brigade. We had over 250 registered and stuffed 310 backpacks! What a great event! I do hope if you had school aged children that you participated. This event put on every year and is for ALL military, retired, active, reserve, etc. Doesn't matter what rank, or what your household income is. Keep that in mind for next year. A lot that are well off registered and gave their backpacks to families in need, and all the leftover school supplies we had from our Dollar Tree collections were divided up and delivered to all the Mtn Home Schools Tuesday and Wednesday. It's so great to be able to help out our military families and community! So, thank you again to all our amazing volunteers!
Onto ESC business! Our next meeting/social is Tuesday, September 3rd at 6:30pm at Liberty Chapel on base. Child care is provided. If you have a teen that is certified through the youth center that would like to volunteer, please contact me at 208-585-7127. We will also be looking for volunteers for Air Force Appreciation Day on September 7th for face painting at our booth at Carl Miller Park. Contact me, or let me know at the meeting that you would like to help out. You can work in hour or two hour periods. It's up to you! Even if you want to stop by and relieve someone at the booth for 15 mins so they can grab a bite to eat, or check out booths themselves. If you just PCS'd in, or have never experienced Air Force Appreciation Day here in Mountain Home, you are definitely in for a treat! :)
