Once again this Halloween, Dr VanderMolen and the team here at Advanced Dental Care of Springfield will be putting our money where our mouths are. Just as we did last year, we’ll be participating in Operation Gratitude, the Halloween Candy Buyback program to help support our military personnel serving overseas.
\n<\/p>\n
This program gives trick-or-treaters the opportunity to exchange some or all of their Halloween haul for cash.\u00a0 The collected candy will then be sent to Operation Gratitude<\/i> in California where it will be sorted and repackaged and then distributed to troops serving overseas.<\/p>\n
Each child is eligible to receive $1 per pound, up to a five (5) pound limit, for all unopened, uneaten candy.<\/strong> \u00a0We also encourage the children to draw pictures and\/or write letters or notes to include in the packages to our troops<\/em>.<\/p>\n We will be collecting the candy on Saturday, November 1st<\/sup>, the day after Halloween, from 9:00 am until 1:00 pm,.<\/strong><\/p>\n If you have any questions, please feel free to call our office at (217) 717-4551 or visit our Facebook page HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n Here’s Some More Information About the Event:<\/strong><\/p>\n
