Scouts make Christmas care packages for local troops

ANDREW LEIBENGUTH/TIMES NEWS Scouts, parents and volunteers spent time recently packing boxes and boxes of care package items they collected to send to the Hometown unit and other local military personnel serving abroad. The care packages are filled with all types of items, to include games, hygiene items, beef jerkey, popcorn, christmas decorations, christmas cards, newspapers, magazines, soccer balls and so on. Tara Nattress and Julie DeAngelo stated their appreciation to all who donated and helped. For more information about the scouts contact Scoutmaster Scott Winterburn at (570) 527-2006.
