There are 4 ways for you to participate in this Annual CFC Tradition!

2. Provide an address of a deployed troop to receive a package. DUE NOV 21st
3. Donate funds to help cover postage. DUE BEFORE DEC 5th
4. Join us for our annual Pack & Ship Day on Dec 5th
DETAILS and VIDEO for these options:
1. BAKE AND WRAP COOKIES. Bake, wrap and drop off at CFC on Dec 4th between 8:30 – 11am in room 406 & 408 or Dec 5th between 8 – 9:00am. Fresh-baked cookies from the bakery are okay, but please NO pre-packaged cookies off the shelf. We want our deployed men and women to feel the love of home baked. Please also avoid high moisture cookies such as frosted or filled cookies as they can spoil before they reach some of our further-away troops. If you’re baking ahead of time, please wrap and freeze them until drop off days Dec 4 or 5. SIGN UP BELOW.
How you wrap your cookies is VERY important, so they don’t arrive crushed and broken. Click here for a quick explainer video.
Drop off your wrapped cookies to rooms 406 and 408 on Friday, Dec 4th before 11am OR Saturday, Dec 5th before 9:00am in room 406/408. Please keep them frozen until then so we aren’t shipping out stale cookies. A large flat rate box will fit 6-8 dozen cookies. So, feel free to make as many cookies as you like. Just make sure to wrap them as per this video and freeze them until you drop them off.
2. PROVIDE AN ADDRESS BY NOV 21st. If you know somebody deployed, whether in your family or perhaps a friend or neighbor, we would love to send them a box of cookies. Important! Please verify their address. Email their name and address to Kim Dale kimldale@aol.com NO LATER THAN NOVEMBER 21.
3. DONATE FUNDS FOR POSTAGE. Last year we spent a little over $4,000.00 on postage shipping boxes of cookies around the world, which is an average of 158 packages! If you would like to make a donation, please mail in or drop off cash or check to the church office or in the boxes at church in an envelope clearly marked Cookie Deployment. The suggested donation is $27 per box (the cost to ship in 2025) but we will gladly accept any donation. PLEASE make sure to put in an envelope marked Cookie Deployment!
4. JOIN US FOR PACKING DAY on Saturday, December 5th in room 406/408 at 9:00 am. We will take all the dropped off pre-wrapped cookies and pack them into flat rate boxes so they can be shipped.
If you have ANY questions about any of this, Please email Kim Dale or Kayla Henderson.
