BDAMom Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 This is such a wonderful idea. In addition to this, another great "care" package is just to walk up to a member, shake their hand in the lot and express your heartfelt appreciation for what they do- regardless of the corps and be it ever so brief an exchange. You just never know when a member may be struggling with illness, home sickness, or another of the many hardships that come with tour. The members really do appreciate ALL forms of support! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanguard07 Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 What a novel idea! I wish they would have had something like this when I marched! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BKTrumpetMom Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 So, how do you enter which corps and member you are sending this to? Do I leave a note in comments? Just wondering before I complete the order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is where you put their name, and for the company, put the name of their corps. There is also a gift message for the recipient where you can write something like, "For Emerson Thoreau, I hope you and everyone in Corps X enjoys the Atlanta show." That should give you added peace of mind about where the package is going and what show it will show up at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael, I also want to send my son a care package, but I too am a little confused as what to write in the shipping section. The shipping address was blank and it required the address, city, state, and zip in order to proceed. Thanks, Rudy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spoke with Cathy who was very helpful and made sure my boy will get his care package this weekend. Sounds like the merch trailer will be on site and the packages will be assembled the day of.

sarnia sam Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 I was about to add what Xmandad did. The phone number is top middle of the webpage. Cathy said the shipping address thing was a problem so it was a good thing I called. Also found out there's another drop in Atlanta. The large packages that weren't ordered before the 18th will be delivered there. Regards, John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
