Salvation Army Kettle Drive
Salisbury Middle School

Salisbury Middle School is conducting a Salvation Army Kettle Drive that will run through Nov. 23. The school is collecting coins, bills and Eagle Bucks. Students and staff can donate coins and bills, which will go directly to the Salvation Army. The school is also hoping that parents and guardians will chip in during American Education Week. Additionally, students may donate the Eagle Bucks they receive for good behavior and good citizenship. For every 10 Eagle Bucks, an outside sponsor will donate $1 to the Salvation Army on behalf of SMS (up to $500). The SMS goal is to raise at least $500 for the Salvation Army by Nov. 23. This event is sponsored by the A-Team of SMS, which hopes that everyone will gather their spare coins, dollars and Eagle Bucks to put towards an excellent cause. 410-677-5149.

I supported them with the payment of my inflated real estate tax at a time when my property value went down!

Tell the gov to use the money we give them for education and stop stealing it. there will be no need for us to pony up extra money.

Ditto with the soldiers who fight for us. They get injured and we have to raise additional money for them because our government won't take care of them. It is outrageous.
