Collections to Support Our Troops

The Town of Redington Shores is joining forces with other beach communities collecting needed items for our men and women in Iraq. These items are boxed and mailed to various military sources in Iraq to be shared with our troops.

Our goal is to keep the source of supply continuous until our troops can return to the U.S. We need your help to provide this source. The following is a list of recommended items, a printable version is also available.

   Thank you for your support.
   God Bless America
