Treat our Troops

Happy Veteran's Day!  This year the Adirondack Lynx, Adirondack FC and Empire City Soccer Academies are teaming up with Operation Gratitude to lift the spirits of veterans and active duty officers.

Bring your unwanted/unwrapped/untouched Halloween candy to training this Thursday, November 12th!

Operation Gratitude annually sends 150,000+ care packages filled with snacks, entertainment, hygiene and hand-made items, plus personal letters of appreciation, to New Recruits, Veterans, First Responders, Wounded Warriors, Care Givers and to individually named U.S. Service Members deployed overseas. The Adirondack Lynx, Adirondack FC and Empire City would love to lift the spirits and meet the evolving needs of our Active Duty and Veteran communities, and express our appreciation to all members of our Military.

Since its inception in 2003, Operation Gratitude volunteers have shipped more than One Million Care Packages! https://www.operationgratitude.com/
