School has started which also means Halloween and its dreaded candy is just around the corner. Once again, Dr.’s Dominic Colletti and Joseph Matustik are joining forces with Operation Gratitude to help reduce the amount of candy kids consume this Halloween while also providing a special treat package for our Troops overseas. Since 2011 we have collected and shipped over 4,976 pounds.

Operation Gratitude seeks to lift the morale and put smiles on faces by sending care packages addressed to individual Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Marines deployed in harm’s way, to their children left behind, and to Wounded Warriors recuperating Transition Units.

COLLECTION TIMES:
Monday, November 4th - 12 to 7pm
Tuesday, November 5th - 8 to 3pm
Wednesday, November 6th - 8 to 7pm 
Thursday, November 7th - 8 to 4pm
Friday, November 8th - 8 to noon
Saturday, November 9th - 8 to noon


HERE’S HOW IT WORKS:

Bring your child/children to our dental office at 176 S. Bloomingdale Rd. in Bloomingdale to cash in their unopened Halloween candy only. They will receive $1 per pound of candy up to $5 per child. We are also asking each child to bring in a short note or colorful drawing to show support for our Troops.

If you have any questions please call (630)893-6200 or visit www.176dental.com for further information.

THIS IS NO TRICK!! CASH IN YOUR CANDY TO TREAT OUR TROOPS!!
