Are you guys talking about snail mail or online??? I didn't know anything about it before but I get busy and don't read every post.

Yes Frieda , that would be snail mail or pony express.....lol....

Its cute...I did it last year...It was very colorful....

I bought my Arizona post cards again this year. Cracker Barrel had a sale so I hope you all enjoy the State thing again. It's less expensive and I really enjoyed seeing the part of the country you all live in. I love the beautiful cards but just think it's the thought that we remember each other at this special time of the year.

Sounds good to me guys! How did we get each other's addresses? I love getting and sending Christmas cards. Freida

Debbie O. Fennell

Sep 12 2006, 04:22 PM

I'll be glad to send the addresses again this year. I have all the ones in a document from last year, so if y'all want me to do it, let me know. I'll type up a list of everybody's club names and you can let me know if you'll like to participate again this year. If you are new to the club, please PM me or e-mail me with your real name and address (please don't put it on the board) and I'll add you to the list. When I've compiled all the names/address, I'll e-mail the list to everybody.

Here's the names from last year:

Mary Redd
Debbie O. Fennell
Bestamaw
Gillgrantfan
Swanie
Anna
Grissly74
Nina
Rebekahp
Charlene
carrie ann groves
Oma
Jennifer
lhamm2

JBC
Christine
cas
hyoung
Mandy
Byjolly
Pam Dalton
Lucinda
Sue Whitney
Hilary
seniorlegalasst
Linda
shirl
Leah
Chelle
Jimbo
Alison

Please let me know if you would like to participate.

Question - Would there be any way we could get Vince and his family a card without sending it to their address? Anybody got any ideas? I just thought it would be nice if we wrote a note letting Vince know how much his music means to us and how this club has brought together all of us - n not only on the board, but in our hearts.

Becky

Sep 12 2006, 04:28 PM

Debbie, I want to participate again this year...I look forward to getting Christmas cards from my 'Vince pals' every year!!!

Good question...it would be nice if we could send Vince & family a card as well ...

Good idea on the sending a card to Vince and family.

I bought Arizona post cards again .Cracker Barrel had a sale and they are cheaper to mail. I made a rhyme

Carrie, I don't know whether all of the people from last year will participate this year, so I'll be sending you another list a little later on.

Debbie O. Fennell

Sep 12 2006, 07:20 PM

I've updated my list to add the people who've e-mailed me, PM'd me, or added their names here on this topic as of 9:00 pm EST tonight. I'll keep a check on the board and my PM and e-mail addy's.

I'll also check into getting a way for us to send Vince and the family a card.

Anna Leighton

Sep 13 2006, 06:13 AM

Debbie ,Some one said that all the artist at the Opry have a mail box. Maybe we could send it there or to the HOF. Just a couple of ideas. I bet if we sent it just to Vince Gill Belle Meade Nashville Tn. it would get there.

Put me on the list. I saved mine from last year but would need any new ones.Thanks Deb

add me to the list again this year. Really enjoyed all of the cards last year. My information is the same.

Debbie O. Fennell

Sep 18 2006, 03:50 PM

First off, Linda and Shirl - you have both been added.

Secondly, Alison has agreed to be a part of our Exchange list, but ONLY if she can send us a card too. Isn't that sweet? I've added her to the list. She has also agreed to take Vince's cards to him, so there ya go. I'll add Vince's address (actually Alison's address with Vince's name) to the list.

Thirdly(is that a word Mary Ann???), I also sent e-mails to Amber, Johanna, and Stephanie. Amber said she was touched that we wanted to include her in the list, but we will send her cards to the fan club as we did Lori's. Johanna also wants to be included, but can not guarantee she will be able to send cards back. Waiting on word from Stephanie.

Sounds good to me. Just let me have a complete list when the time comes. It is really nice that allison and the others want to be included in our Christmas list.

Joan, some of the info may not be correct, so I'm revising and sending the list out around the middle of November. Is that time okay for everybody? I know some of our buddies live in Canada, so want to make time for them to send and get their cards.

Deb,
That's so cool that Alison want to be included and she will give Vince our cards. How exciting! The middle of november is fine with me. I want to make sure everyone gets thiers in time. I'll have to go and buy lots of US stamps. LOL!
