CARE PACKAGE PARTY January 28, 2023
These were some impressive care packages we assembled at Gigi and Stephen Simko's house! 29 packages in total, filled with the items donated by our families, to include snacks, card games, candy, toothpaste, lip balm, and athletic shorts. Stephen fed us well and we enjoyed meeting some new families! The packages were dropped at the post office the following Monday. Thank you to all who showed up and to all who contributed items and money for shipping!
DINNER AT FRESCA July 24, 2022
It was a fun night at Fresca Tequila Bar & Grill in Colchester, CT! Many families met each other for the first time and we caught up on what our cadets have been up this summer. Great food, great company - a successful night! And we didn't even know it was National Tequila Day when we chose the date and venue!
