HELP SEND COOL SCARVES TO SOLDIERS

Circle I is requesting your help in sending Cool Scarves to our soldiers.  Cool Scarves are a thin strip of cloth that is filled with crystals what when soaked in water will remain cool for 48 hours. 

These scarves are worn around the soldier’s necks to keep them cooler than usual in the intense heat in Iraq.
We are buying some of these scarves for a cost of $1.50 each (if we buy 100) and having them sent to the contact to whom the last soldier’s box was sent.

If you are interested in helping with this, please contact either Mary Grace Hayden (724-837-3032) or Lois Bullock (724-925-1619). Thank you Mary Grace Hayden
