Of course all the above mentioned clothing items have to be white. The package has to be postmarked by Sept. 30th.

If they do the same thing they did the last two years, yep, it will be all food, and has to be ordered from this one company they have been contracting with for the Christmas packages. You can spend up to $100 limit and the prices are mostly reasonable. The first year some of the items weren't very good I was told, but last year I heard no complaints about any of it.
They will get handed order forms and you can mail the order in but if you're using a credit card you can also order directly on the Web, and ADOC usually has the link to order on the home page of the ADOC website around late October or early November. As long as you have the inmate's AIS number and a credit card you can order that way.
All this, of course, provided they're using the same company again this year but I suspect they will. It was much nicer when we could pack our own food boxes but I reckon those days are long gone...

Sorry, I don't remember the name. They'll likely post a link to the order form on the website probably the first week of November.
