Shrewsbury - (l to r) Julie Hamilton, Sarah Kelland, Michaela Hummer and Devinne Zadravec unload more than 100 care packages collected during their Santa for Soldiers drive. All of the packages will be shipped to Julie's brother Anthony Hamilton's unit in Iraq in time for Christmas, thanks to donations of socks, T-shirts, games, snacks and letters from the community, as well as a $1,200 donation from Shrewsbury Federal Credit Union to cover shipping costs. Not pictured are Blake Jeznach, Stephen Trudeau, Megan Weighte and Ryan Clark, who also helped with the drive.
