Treats for Troops Program Returns to Oakland County

Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard announced Wednesday the continuation of what has quickly become a tradition in the county, the “Treats for Troops,” program.
For the sixth-straight year, the sheriff’s office is spearheading an effort to send Halloween candy to military troops overseas.
“Treats for Troops is a great way parents can participate in a community service project with their kids while showing our troops we support them back home,” Bouchard said in a release.
The process is a simple one, Halloween candy can be dropped off at one of seven Oakland County Sheriff substations or at headquarters anytime between Monday, Nov. 2 and Wednesday, Nov. 4.
Candy must be unopened, individually wrapped and dropped off during the designated dates only, according to the release.
