COOKIES

We got this e-mail from a listener in Mountain Home. If you can, please help. Our men and women in the service do so much for us and this is just a tiny token of appreciation.

Dear Mike and Kate,
I am a military spouse and a mother of two. We are stationed here in Mountain Home Airforce Base for the time being. Whenever I get the chance I like to volunteer to help anyone that I can just to give back a little.

It is the time of the year when military spouses along with anyone esle that volunteers get togehter to send a little piece of home to our men and women from Mountain Home AFB that are away from their families and fighting for our freedom!

We are doing the 366th Annual Airman's Holiday Cookie Drive. We need to collect 1,600 dozen cookies to provide a "taste of home" for our Airmen in the dorms and those deployed. It will cost us over $800 to send them all out.

The favor I ask is if you could tell fellow listeners that this year we could use all the help that we can get. The economy is down and showing in a very big way this year! Just the littlest help from anyone will help us on our way to do such a special thing for our people (our heros).

Please bake a variety of colorful, durable cookies so they will survive transport.

Early deliveries can be made: Dec 1-6
In Town: Paul's Market and Albertsons
On Base: Base Exchange or The Gunfighter club

Curbside drop off: Dec. 8th 7:30-9:30am

Volunteers will be needed to package the cookies. For more information you can send an e-mail to:

Thank you so much for your time and ear!
Your faithful listener and proud American,
Sarah Lynn Kephart
