During May, for Military Appreciation Month, students at Oak View Elementary School wrote over 1,300 postcards to wounded veterans at Ft. Belvoir. This effort was in collaboration with the school's Student Council Association, the American Red Cross, and Brad Snyder, a parent whose company MarCom Group, Inc. (Fairfax) coordinated the effort.
After the postcards were delivered, Snyder randomly selected two postcards and thanked the students with gift certificates on Friday, June 7.
