Hey, Livingston County! One of the Brighton Optimists, Donna Campbell, is helping a friend collect items to send over to the troops in Afghanistan. She'll be collecting items Thursday morning at the Bauery Restaurant at Mt. Brighton, during the weekly Brighton Optimist Club Meeting. An excerpted list of items that are wanted are:
lotion, sunscreen, deodorant - all travel size; chap stick, soap, eye drops, disposable razors; individual packets of trail mix, beef jerky, and general munchies; disposable cameras, small toys like beanie babies that the troops can hand out to the kids over there; zip lock bags and holiday decorations, duct tape, writing paper. Optimists, let's fill her vehicle up THIS THURSDAY - then go ring bells for the Salvation Army. Bring your stuff to Mt. Brighton at 7:30 am Thursday, December 1st.
All Livingston County residents - if you can stop by with some of these items, please do so. Stick around for breakfast on the Brighton Optimist Club if you wish. If you can't make the early hour, drop your items off at Campbell's Collision on Grand River just east of Whitmore Lake Rd. Let's help make the Holidays a little nicer for our troops!
