We sent warm vibes and a little sweetness to all the cadets at the Academy this week! Our FL/GA chapter provided cookies and hot cocoa to all in the Ward Room and Day Rooms. With the help of the Activities Office and several cadets, we distributed many boxes of goodies and cocoa. Acorn Food Services even provided marshmallows and hot water. ❤️ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
