I just got the idea to blog about OQC - Operation Quiet Comfort and our Cool Ties for the Troops project! We have a competition going, as you can see from the thermometers to the right. The West Coast is ahead, but that might change after this weekend! Who knows?!?!


Did everyone see or hear President Obama's speech today. He encouraged us all to Support the Troops by sending a care package, card/letter or just to expess thanks to a veteran or current soldier. Wahoo!


I did my part today... we worked on over 100 cool ties, care packages and cards! Why do just ONE thing?!?!


I'll be posting about our successes this cool tie season, I can't wait to see how close we get to our goal - or maybe we'll surpass it. WOW, that might just blow my mind!


Last year OQC sent 1755 cool ties, so this year, with two coordinators, we're aiming for 3510! We CAN do this!


Comments welcome, and volunteers always needed! Many hands make light work. Come join the fun!
