Supplies for the Troops

Lincoln Park has joined with "Morris County Cares," which is staring a drive for the troops during the month of November. This drive will have us send letters and basic items to the troops, and will raise funds for postage to ship the items overseas.

Morris County is the home to three U.S. National Guard bases which were recently deployed to Afghanistan and Iraq. If you would like to send a letter to the troops, the Mayor has pre-printed postcards at his office at the municipal building. In addition, supplies for the troops can also be dropped off at the municipal building.

Some of the items most requested by the troops are: coffee, hard candy, hot chocolate, pumpkin seeds, tea bags, tuna, batteries, movie cds, board games, pens and pencils, toothbrushes and toothpaste, chap stick, hand lotion, tissues. You can also make a monetary donation which will help offset the shipping costs. Donations are tax deductible.

This is a great way to start off the Holiday Season. Please link to Lincoln Park's web-site, or MorrisCountyCares.com for more info.
