Besides all the great classes we have coming up in the store this month and next that I'm excited about, I have signed on for a program that is near and dear to my heart and hopefully yours.
I signed up to help with Operation Christmas Cards and I need your help! I committed Gee Gee's Stamps 'n' Stuff to make 500 Holiday cards by November 12, 2011.  These cards will be sent to soldiers who wouldn't otherwise receive mail during this holiday season. Our military does so much for us, a simple card with a short message is the least that we can do for them.  With two of my  brothers that served in the Navy and many of my friends who have family members serving out of Camp Pendleton I feel a special connection to the military.  I know I signed up for holiday cards but I'm sure Thank You Cards or Note Cards of warm wishes will be greatly appreciated.  I scheduled a special card making day in September which was very well attended and a lot of cards were made.  We need more! So Monday October 10th from 12-5 pm our class room will have everything needed to make holiday cards.  Please come by and make a few cards but if you can't make it to the store on Monday and still want to help, make some cards at home and drop them off anytime before Nov. 12th. Make sure to put a short message in your card and sign it.  I'm sure our soldiers will appreciate your creativity and message.
Hope to see you on Monday.
