A Blue (Star Mom) Christmas

Mothers and others supporters of overseas troops gather for a holiday party.

The Novato-based Blue Star Moms of Marin, a group dedicated to supporting our overseas military troops, met for a holiday party on Dec. 7.

"It was a wonderful evening enjoyed by all," said group co-founder Barbara Travis. "We had many moms, their families and our supporters attend."

The chapter members collected donations for the two veteran families that it  adopted and will be donating some items and gift cards to help them enjoy their holidays.
