COMSTOCK PARK, Mich. (WOOD) — For many, the holidays are a time to gather with loved ones, celebrating and enjoying quality time with those you love.
Around 50 families gathered Saturday at Fifth Third Ballpark for an event hosted by the Wins For Warriors Foundation. The idea was for families to come in and make care packages for their loved ones serving in the 1st Battalion, 24th Marines currently in Afghanistan.
“Its a long, tough deployment because they are gone throughout the holidays. We’ve rounded up the families and a lot of volunteers from the community to pack care packages and send them over to Afghanistan,” Wins for Warriors CEO Christie Upton Williams said.
