SUPPORT OUR TROOPS!

Care packages

Working through the L’Anse VFW, volunteers have sent the third batch of “care packages” to National Guard 1431st troops serving in Afghanistan. The 47 packages contain items donated by area businesses such as “ice pops” the troops have requested in the past, water drinks, magazines, cribbage boards, ramen noodles and L’Anse Sentinels. The boxes cost $561 to mail, and people stepped up and donated to cover that. Additional funding for sending the packages came from a VFW pasty sale. L-r, volunteers “Boopie” Snyder, Debbie Mulari, Bob Adams, Kris Turunen, Sue Turunen and Jim Turunen. Also helping have been Bruce Williams, Aja VanAbel, Don Wirtz, John Halinen and the VFW pasty crew.

 

SEND US MILITARY UPDATES

     Readers are encouraged to send in photos of family members serving in the Armed Services and deployed for the Iraq conflict.
     Photographs can be scanned at our office and returned to you immediately if so desired. They may also be dropped off, mailed or e-mailed to sentinel@up.net. A brief bio is also required. It should include the military member’s name and rank, what division of Armed Services they are serving in, where they are stationed or deployed and any related job description if applicable. If desired and available, a postal and/or e-mail address can be included. Listing any local relations is also encouraged.
     Pictures will be published in both the newspaper and featured on our web site www.lansesentinel.com. E-mailed photos should be in .jpeg (.jpg) or .tiff (.tif) format and the best scanned quality available. The higher the file size, the better the quality of reproduction. File sizes of 300 or more megabites will reproduce very well. Anything smaller and reproduction quality is sacrificed. Bitmap files are also acceptable but not preferred.
     Anyone with questions may call Editor Barry Drue at the Sentinel office Monday, Tuesday, Thursday or Friday 8 a.m.-5 p.m or send an e-mail to his attention at sentinel@up.net
