Update on “Horse Shows For Heroes” Project

Update on “Horse Shows For Heroes” Project

At the Chemung County Classic Horse Show you donated a variety of items which we have shipped to soldiers and sailors stationed abroad.  Specifically, we shipped 155 pounds of personal care items to American Servicemen stationed in Iraq, Bahrain, and Afghanistan.  

Your generosity is impressive.  The local UPS Store in Manlius, NY, where I live, further supported our efforts by donating the cost of packing and shipping your gifts.

We hope to repeat this project at more shows in the near future and that shows in other areas with pick up on the project as well.  

If anyone is interested in sending needed items to members of the military, visit www.anysoldier.com and you can find a list of needed items and names and addresses where packages can be sent.  

Thank you again for supporting the initial efforts in this new project.
