Mayes County Blue Star Mothers need more supplies.

Last weekend the group assembled Valentine boxes to send to Mayes County troops serving in Iraq.

“We used everything,” Pam Buffington said. Already looking toward Easter boxes, the Blue Star mothers need more items to send soldiers a slice of home.

Buffington said the group wants to send packages to all Mayes County soldiers serving in the war.

“We want to know who Mayes County has in Iraq,” Buffington said. Parents are welcome to join Blue Star Mothers, but if they don’t Buffington urges families to send their soldiers names and addresses so they can get care packages, too. For information, to identify a soldier serving in the war, or to join Blue Star Mothers contact Buffington at 825-1083 or e-mail her at buffingtonpam@hotmail.com.

In addition to food items, Buffington said soldiers love CDs, movies and books."
