The Washington County Chamber of Commerce will once again serve as a drop off point for the Sixth Annual Hoosier Cheer for our Heroes, sponsored by Lt.Governor Becky Skillman.  Thousands of U.S. servicemen and women who are stationed overseas during the holiday season will be sent cards, and words of encouragement.

To participate in the Hoosier Cheer for our Heroes Program, drop off your cards and/or letters to the Chamber of Commerce Office, located at 201 E Market St., Suite 104 in Salem, no later than Nov. 17th!  The cards will be transported to Indianapolis by Sharon Purlee on Friday, Sept. 18th.

Guidelines regarding the letters and/or cards include:

  • Keep all messages light-hearted and encouraging
  • Talk about the weather,  your family, pets and hobbies, fmaily traditions for the holidays, well-wishes for safety and success
  • Be creative!  However, please so not use glitter, confetti or other messy art supplies.  Do not include candy, money or other items.
