We love receiving letters and packages from home. Here is a list of things we enjoy and cannot get here. They are in no particular order. Please know it takes an average of 3 weeks to receive letters and small packages. Larger packages take 2-6 months. Don’t let that discourage you from sending chocolate (we will break it up if it melts into one large glob - not a problem). We understand the cost of mailing us a package far exceeds the value of the contents and do not expect them. With all that said, here is our list - thanks for looking...
Snacks/Food
Marshmallow cream
Skittles
M&Ms
Candy corn
Kool-Aid
