Charlotte Cito is preparing another shipment for the ‘Operation Guardian Angel? program at the Lake Orion Post Office.
But this one is different from most donations, based on some feedback Cito has gotten from the troops.
‘I want to send them some fun stuff,? she said, noting the upcoming mailing is going to be sporting equipment.
Cito is seeking colored golf balls and sand wedges, in addition to baseballs, softballs, bats, gloves, basketballs, footballs, volleyballs, Frisbees and more. She will also be sending hand-held electronic games and other things of that nature.
Two mailings are planned, one in late May and another in August. Because of the nature of this shipment, Cito needs help in more ways than one.
‘My postage is going to be really high on these,? she said, noting that monetary donations are greatly appreciated.
The Lake Orion Post Office is located at 611 N. Axford, west of M-24, north of Indianwood Rd. and across from the Kroger store.
Cito said donations of equipment or money can be brought in to the post office or given to local mail carriers.
