Holiday Cards for Troops

 

 

The Wolf Creek Council and National Honor Society organized a holiday card making event for current military service members, military families, and veterans. The cards provide a special piece of “home” for troops during the holiday season. The American Red Cross distributes these cards to hospitals and installments all around the world. Students enjoyed writing special messages of thanks and appreciation, as well as, decorating the cards.
