Reasor’s Scoops for the Troops
Join Reasor's and the Oklahoma Chapter 1 Blue Star Mothers on Saturday, July 10, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at all Reasor's locations and have a scoop of ice cream for the troops! It's just a $1 donation for a scoop of delicious ice cream or a root beer float, and all proceeds go to support our troops.
The main focus of the Oklahoma Chapter One is to send Freedom Boxes to our troops serving in Iraq, Afghanistan and on any hostile foreign soil. These boxes are just a small way to say "thank you for your sacrifice and patriotism to our nation" and to let the troops know there will always be people back home thinking about them and praying for them. Keebler will also donate $1 for every package of cones sold on July 10th to Blue Star Mothers. Last year the combined efforts raised over $13,000 for Blue Star Mothers.
