Join K95.5 For The 2nd Annual Christmas For The Troops

K95.5 is turning its thoughts overseas this holiday season as we honor the brave men and women serving abroad and away from family and friends during this festive time. We are teaming up with the Broken Arrow Blue Star Mothers to collect items to include in care packages to be sent to servicemen and women around the world. The unrest overseas means more servicemen and women are being deployed and those that are already deployed are having their orders extended through the holidays. Now is the time for K95.5 Green Country listeners to step up and show their support.
