Care package project: Help honor U.S. troops at Ocean Pines Yacht Club event, Oct. 8

(Sept. 29, 2023) Steel Blu Vodka, in partnership with The Matt Ortt Companies, recently announced a care package event to aid U.S. troops serving locally and abroad.
 
The event is set for Sunday, Oct. 8, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Ocean Pines Yacht Club.
 
Steel Blu, based in Delaware, donates 10% of the company's profits toward care packages for those serving in the U.S. Armed Forces.
 
With those funds, the company purchases nonperishable goods – such as toiletries, snacks, and office supplies – and packages them with the help from local volunteers. 
 
Volunteers are needed to help prepare the packages, and those who pitch in will be treated to a day filled with meaningful activities and entertainment. Live performances by Cup O' Joe will help keep spirits high, while a range of happy hour food and drink specials, exciting giveaways, engaging games, and enticing raffles will add to the festivities.
 
The event is made possible through the sponsorship of Steel Blu Vodka, Big Wave Marketing, Fully Promoted branded apparel, and Ocean Pines Get Involved.
 
Chelsey Chmelik, a Matt Ortt Companies manager, helped to organize the event. 
 
"We are thrilled to support our troops and make a difference through the Steel Blu Vodka Care Package Project," Chmelik said. "This event is a testament to our commitment to giving back to the community and expressing our gratitude to the brave individuals who serve our country."

Additional donations and handwritten letters for U.S. troops can be mailed to American Heroes, 810 Ocean Parkway, Berlin, MD, 21811.
