Reader: Youngsters 'Gain Appreciation' of Troop SacrificeThe Garwood Library's 'Holiday Mail for Heroes' event held Friday drew 15 children armed with crayons, markers and colored paper, according to a 365 reader.
The children created 40 cards for service men and women.
"From the sentiments expressed in the cards, I do believe the youngsters gained an appreciation of the sacrifices the troops are making to preserve our freedom," said the reader- posted under the name CW.
The children also created 75 Christmas ornaments for the 'Trees for Troops' project sponsored by Williams Nursery in Westfield.
