Collected candy supports troops overseas

CedarRock Dental Care will be paying one dollar for every pound of unopened candy turned in to them after Halloween. This is part of Operation Gratitude, a nonprofit organization that will collect the candy, package it all, and ship it to our troops overseas. If possible, they would love to have the children also bring a letter or card to send along with the candy, wishing our soldiers well and hoping they enjoy the candy. They will also send Beanie Babies and phone calling cards. The soldiers not only love the candy and other items for themselves, but they also give them out to the children in the communities they patrol—winning hearts and minds all over the world.
Please help CedarRock Dental Care send an enormous amount of candy to our troops. Bring it to their office on Monday, Nov. 1, between 4:00 and 6:00 p.m. only, at 4655 14 Mile Road NE, Rockford, directly across the street from John Decker Chevrolet. For further information, please call (616) 866-4461 or (616) 696-2600.
