Sandra Boldt, President of the St. Joe Valley Blue Star Mothers Chapter 6, was in Knox this week organizing an event to be held in September. This will be an event to collect items for the troops deployed overseas.
“We’re going to be holding an event September 11th through the 17th called ‘Knox Supports our Troops’ and it is a donation drive for items to send for Operation Care Package,” said Boldt. “We send care packages to our deployed troops and to veterans that need a little pick-me-up as well. Last year, we did 706 packages and this year, with Knox’s support, we want to be able to do 2,000 packages.”
