Manchester, NH, Supervisor, Customer Services Mary Murray and Vehicle Maintenance Manager Tom Woods teamed up to provide a show-and-tell about the Post Office at The Training Station's week-long day camp. They demonstrated for young grade-schoolers how much fun it is to send and receive mail.
Murray talked about the subjects used for stamp designs, and read them a book on writing and mailing letters. She also gave them a short history of Owney the Postal Dog. Woods provided the group with envelopes and some of the recently-released Owney the Postal Dog stamps.
The postal-themed visit was a hit with the kids, who wrote letters home telling their parents that it was the favorite thing they did at camp that week.
