Next monthly meeting June 15th, 2026- 7 pm ** Next Troops packing - TO BE ANNOUNCED
information updated may 30, 2026
Next Packing to be announced
During these global uncertain times, the government has closed military bases from receiving packages. This is obviously for the safety of all military personnel. Post 52 has no option but to hold on shipments until the mail is once again able to get through. We do have some who are stationed on bases where they can receive their package and those are being sent on a regular basis by a few volunteers. However, we are currently not holding packings open to the public. Letters of support and encouragement are being sent on a regular basis.
Hang in there with us. We do have contacts who are keeping us posted on this frustrating situation.
We are still accepting names and addresses of active military personnel - no matter where they are serving. Monetary donations will be used to resupply once we are able to ship again. Thank you for your continued support.
THANK YOU TO THOSE SERVING AND THOSE WHO HAVE SERVED
