Ok, so I am excited about everyone who is interested, but I’m trying to sort out the best way to approach this.
The idea that I have come up with is that everyone interested PMs me with their names, children’s first name and ages and of course mailing address. Then I would put all the info on the list and copy it back to everyone. Then each family would begin by mailing a post card to the person below their name on the list, then proceed down the list, returning to the top of the list and working down until the reach the name above their own. This way, all the post cards are not being sent to only one person at a time, they are being spaced out a bit, and if someone doesn’t get through the whole list, at least everyone should get some post cards. I’m not sure we need to make a rule as to how many post cards are sent how often — bbut it would be nice if everyone could send a card to one or two people on their list per week at least. It would be nice to include somethng interesting about your family and your home town, state or country. Maybe even a question that the receiver might have fun looking up the answer to about your corner of the world.
So if this sounds good to you, or if you have a different suggestion, please let me know!
