The club is getting ready to stuff stockings that we send to the troops for Christmas. We are working on a new project “Box of Balloons” with members collecting party goods for four themed parties for children in underserved areas. This is a national organization with the local site being in Woodbury.

Other projects include adopting a 10-year old boy with autism and other health problems through Angels Community Outreach.  Each month, members are making up baskets of goodies for him and his family to enjoy. We collect aluminum tabs for Ronald McDonald House, any condition sneakers for them to be recycled 

The club recently participated in Washington Township’s Super Saturday and donated backpacks filled with school supplies to schools in the county.
