Congratulations to all Compatriots of the H. L. Hunley Camp who donated and participated in our Christmas Project.  What started out as a straight forward effort to purchase two or three dozen bicycles to be turned over to the US Marines for their Toys-for-Tots Campaign, mushroomed into a $6,600.00 fantastic mega donation of 430 toys, 89 of which were bicycles. 

            We called US Marine Gunnery Sergeant Kathryn Brennan and asked for her advice. Rick Andrews and Walker Wright met Gunnery Sergeant Brennan at a local store in Summerville December 5^th.  On the evening of December 12^th a caravan of nine trucks and trailers loaded down with four pallets of toys and eighty-nine bicycles made their way down to the US Marine Corps Toys-for-Tots staging area in North Charleston.  Fifteen of our finest, including SCV, SC Division Commander Randy Burbage, made the presentation to the Marines and helped them offload all the items.  Sleep well, this Christmas Eve Hunley Camp, you did a great job.
