The time has come to announce the unit that donated the most to the drive. It was neck and neck all the way to the end, but 823d Red Horse Squadron came out on top, donating almost 1300 cookies, plus lots of candy and candy canes. Can do, will do, have done!

Extremely close behind was 8 SOAMXS with over 1200 cookies. And in third place is 319 SOS with a little more than 700 cookies. This is an incredible amount of effort from all!

823 RHS has earned the $200 donation to its holiday party. However, because the competition was so close, the Hurlburt Spouses' Club has chosen to reward 8 SOAMXS with a $150 donation to its holiday party. Excellent work, everyone! Thank you again for all you do for our Airman!

Thank you all for your support for the 2025 Commando Cookie Drive. We had over 6000 cookies, more than 5000 pieces of candy, and a little over 600 candy canes, which all combined allowed us to pack more than 600 treat bags for our dorm residents. This wasn't quite as much as our goal, but it was plenty to create a nice little bag of sweet treats to help us brighten the day for these young airmen. Thank you to everyone who baked, donated, volunteered, or supported in any way! See you again in 2026!

There were quite a few units that jumped onto the score board for the holiday party donation competition with dropoffs Sunday night. 8 SOAMXS and 823 RED HORSE are neck and neck in first place followed by a close run for 3rd place between 1 SOMUNS and 319 SOS. Keep those donations coming! Who will come out on top and earn the holiday party donation this year?

Volunteers have been hard at work tonight collecting cookie & candy and setting up. Bring your donations tomorrow morning from 7-10 am. We already have a good start to our collection!

We are 40% to our goal with signups! We could also use several more volunteers on Monday. We will collect cookies and candy and package them into treat bags. Many hands make light work! Put on that ugly sweater or your cutest holiday gear and join us for a fun day of making the holidays a little brighter for our young dorm residents!

ATTENTION BAKERS!!!
Each year we lose quite a few dozen cookies to damage (although the packaging volunteers are happy to take care of those! lol). Here are a few tips for packaging your cookies. Please be sure to write the TOTAL NUMBER of cookies on your package or tell us the total (or a good estimate) of what you are dropping off. If you want to be considered for the Top Baker designation, please include your NAME, your UNIT, and the QUANTITY of cookies (see example pic) on the package(s). Our volunteers will ask this information at drop off, but writing it on the container helps a lot.

We really hate to see cookies damaged that cannot be used in the treat bags! To help prevent damage, consider using aluminum pans or shallow boxes (shirt & sweater gift boxes work great) to pack the cookies in layers. Adding wax or parchment paper between layers is helpful also. Large ziplock style bags are okay if handled gently and laid flat with one layer of cookies so the cookies are not smashed and crushed, but often many bagged cookies do not survive to drop off in one piece and therefore never make it to the treat bags. Cookies that are too soft, sticky, or that have soft icing are also not ideal because they smash and stick together and again, never make it to the treat bags. We don't want to see anyone's hard work destroyed! Thank you for everything you are doing to support our airmen!

Units, would you like the opportunity to earn a donation for your holiday party? Be the unit that contributes the most cookies and candy, and the Hurlburt Spouses' Club will donate $200 to your unit's holiday party. Keep in mind that cookies should be intact and in a condition that allows us to include them in the goodie bags. We understand that some cookies may meet their demise, but if too many are piled in a container or dropped into a zipper bag, they are likely to be crushed and/or broken. Take care to package them safely and not stack them too high so they will be smashed.
