CHRISTMAS FOR THE TROOPS 2011
Packages should be received by Australia Post by Monday 5 December 2011 in order to reach troops in time for Christmas. A list of the Offices and suggestions on items to include can be found at http://www.peterdutton.com.au/ or by contacting Mr Dutton’s office on 3205 9977.
Christmas is a special time for all Australians and provides most of us with a much needed opportunity to spend some precious time with family and friends. During the holiday season it is important to spare a thought for those who will not be with their families this
Christmas, like the thousands of Australian troops serving overseas.
Federal Member, Peter Dutton is encouraging Dickson residents to show their support for the troops again this Christmas by sending them a care package, free of charge, through Australia Post. Australia Post allows free delivery for packages weighing no more than 2kg (cubed) to our soldiers on the front line.
“When sending your parcel don’t forget to include a letter of support to the troops and include a stamped self addressed envelope so they can send a letter back to you. For something different, you may also like to send a care package to one of the Explosive Detection Dogs, but don’t forget to include a treat for the handler” Mr Dutton said.
