Mid-Cal Blue Star Moms members Michelle Meade and Barbara Aceves were on hand with an informational booth on Saturday in neighboring Escalon at that community’s annual Lions Club Car Show, with pictures for kids to color to include with care packages being prepared for sending to troops overseas. Aceves is a member of the group and Meade is the treasurer; both have children serving in the military. The Mid-Cal Blue Star Moms has members from throughout the region and gathers each second Thursday of the month at 6 p.m. at Mountain Mike’s in Escalon; the next meeting is Sept. 14.
