Special Christmas Event 2012

December 2012

SHOEBOXES GALORE

Several members of SI-Richmond & Dales helped to provide a real Christmas treat for female military personnel spending Christmas in Afghanistan. They joined members of a unit from Catterick Garrison to pack and gift-wrap personalized shoeboxes full of toiletries, knitted scarves and other surprises, including small seasonal decorations and greetings from SI-Richmond-and-Dales. One can only imagine the delight that the unexpected gifts will bring to those so far from home at Christmas.

Our Club thanks the unit for welcoming our help and for making it such an enjoyable experience.
