Trees For Troops Video
Yes it is time to think “Holidays.” And the big one coming up is Christmas. So it’s appropriate that I’ve got a Trees For Troops video to share and news about an award they’ve won.
The Christmas SPIRIT Foundation, professionally managed by Drake & Company, has been nationally recognized for its Trees for Troops program by the 2008 Associations Advance America Summit Award from American Society of Association Executives (ASAE) and the Center for Association Leadership.
The Christmas SPIRIT Foundation (CSF) – with support from FedEx Freight – has delivered more than 34,000 Real Christmas Trees to military families since Trees for Troops began in 2005. It has grown from about 400 Christmas tree farms and retailers participating to more than 850. Almost 17,000 families at more than 40 military bases received a Christmas Tree in 2007 grown by an American tree farm.
In this week's program Chuck talks with Mike Adams, AgriTalk.

Thanks Chuck. We’re proud of the program and it’s ability to bring a little Christmas Spirit to our fellow American citizens who are voluntarily serving in our military. It’s a small token of gratitude for the dedication and sacrifice they are making for all of us.

Thanks for doing this. My friends in the military sure do appreciate it.
