Woods End Deli Adopts “Soldier Support Packages”

Michael and Carol Weinshel and Susan Spivack continue to support deployed troops. Since 2005, they have adopted over 30,000 troops…and currently are supporting another 3,000 soldiers who are serving in Afghanistan…the 1st Combat Aviation Brigade, 1st Infantry Division (Ft. Riley) , including the 1-6 Cavalry Squadron.

You, too, can help by contributing money for postage or bringing in much-needed treats and travel-size toiletries. The things we take for granted are the little things that seem to matter most to our deployed soldiers.

Feel free to drop off items at the Woods End Delicatessen, 900 Wood Avenue, Bridgeport, CT

(203-335-7827) from now through October 8. The Deli is open daily from 7-4 and 7-2 on Saturday (closed on Sunday).

 

Celebrate the collection on October 8th with Fred’s famous mouth-watering chocolate chip cookies … FREE … just for adding to the Soldier Support Packages.

 

For questions, contact Carol Weinshel at 203-372-6004 or mica3@sbcglobal.net. On behalf of our soldiers, we thank you for your support.
