Real Christmas Trees For Troops

Chuck Zimmerman

ZimmCast44 - Pam HelmsingTis the season to be jolly and support our troops. That’s the theme of a holiday promotion by the National Christmas Tree Association (NCTA). It’s called Trees For Troops and my guest on this week’s ZimmCast is Pam Helmsing, who works for Drake & Company, that manages the NCTA. Pam talks about the program and how tree growers are working to help provide some seasonal spirit to our troops and their families.

Oh, and BTW. On the NCTA website it says they have a blog. Nice idea but I have to question calling it that. There are none of the features of a blog that I can see except that there are a couple “entries” that are written in a personalized style in answer to a question. I recommend that they create a real blog because all this feature of the website is doing is creating confusion about what it is, which is just a traditional website feature.

You can also still play the very popular “Attack of the Mutant Artificial Trees” game. Remember these are the “real” Christmas tree people!
