I sent it today, sorry your coins were left out :D Settle down, let some coins get here, lol. I'll probably get a package sent out next Friday, that's plenty of time for the Pony Express to get the coins here :D If need be, there will be a second box sent out too. :)

 

;) So, you were just joking, Right :):):D

Stephanie, just wanted to let you know we donated 4 coins for the event for the troops in Iraq. Have them in their own cards and ready to go to a couple of them for the event. Glad we were able to help donated a few coin and help out for a good cause and for a nice event for them Hope this truley puts a smile on each and everyone's face. We are so honored to do this and puts a warm feeling in our hearts knowing we are going to make someone happy. They will be in the mail first thing in the morning comming your way.

 

 

God Bless,

Hey All B)

 

Just an update, I've received the first batch of packages from some of you (see below for the names). Here's the plan, in order to stuff as much as I can in the first box, I'll be putting together little seperate bundles of coins. Each little bundle will include your return address label (I'll be cutting them off your mailers) and I'll attach it to your donation, so that the group knows who sent what or if someone wants to drop you a note, or whatever, they know who to contact or say 'Thanks' too. If you do not want your address included, please email me and let me know. Of course, any Mystery Coins :huh: will not have a return address but will say donated by " insert mystery coin giver here". If you have a question email or pm me, or post it here. I think I made myself clear but who knows....

 

ADDING: For anyone who sent some sort of card with a coin inside and it's obvious you created your own little 'package,' I will not open that, I will insert that into the box as is and will still attach your mailer address label to the card/package. So no worries about me opening up anything that looks like it shouldn't be but loose coins and swag type stuff from any mailers will be done as described above.

Thanks for posting the arrival of the package from Cache Maine and me. It means a lot to know what you shipped arrived safely. We look forward to following the event on its page and also watching the coins once activated.

 

Looks like (from counting the posts and estimating the numbers) ~ there is going to be one load of coins and other things headed to Iraq. This sure is a super response. Sure hope this effort makes for a bright day and extraordinary event for the Troops!

Is it too late for me to help out with this? I could have a package out first thing Monday morning.

Please email me an address if it is not too late. I wish my week had not been so dadgum busy or I would have seen this before tonight.

Let me know and send me an address and I will ship one STAT!

thanks, anne

I'm hoping that I can get just a few of you generous cachers to help me out. I really don't like to ask for help but I can only do so much and I'm hoping some of you would be willing to help me help someone else.

 

Cacher ATC06 who is serving overseas in Iraq is setting up an event at Camp Victory for the 2nd week in April. He sent me an email asking for a donation of geocoins . While I do have a couple coins I will be sending, I think it would be really great if we could really make this event fun for our soldiers. He mentioned he thought there would be about 25 cachers who would show up and wouldn't it be nice to make sure every soldier and contractor walked away with a geocoin? I'd give 25 coins if I had them. I'd really like to make the event special for them so I need some additional help from some of you (please :blink: ).

 

If you are interested in helping me, please send me an email. I'll send you my address to send me a coin. Please feel free to include a written letter to the guys/gals or postcard. I'd like to get a box of 'stuff' sent off by the middle of March to make sure it arrives in plenty of time.

 

Again any help would be appreicated and please don't feel pressured to donate, not everyone can and I understand that but if you want you can send me a card to send off to them if you just want to send a message.

 

I'd like to get at least 25 geocoins, I'm sending 4, so 21 left to go... thanks for your consideration :unsure:

Wow, Steph, it looks like the geocoin community has stepped up to the plate to send a few smiles to the guys in Iraq! And honestly, what's a few coins compared to what they are doing for us?!

 

Thank you Steph for putting this together and thanks to all who serve their country!

How many coins total? :drama:

 

I haven't even opened most of the packages yet. Some are in envelopes ready to go as is but just a guess on my part, I think there are around 75 coins but that is a wild guess based on weight of packages and size. What do I know? lol. I'll be taking some pics and counting what I can before I send of the 1st package on Friday. I can tell you this much, it is going to be very heavy and stuffed to the gills. You coiners are such an awesome group.

 

dflye send a huge package of chocolate and coffee. I'll be splitting those up between packages. I think we should take a vote on if the chocolate should stay with me or be shipped :anicute: It's special dark (oh I love that stuff and it's good for you).

 

Thanks all, you're a great group, I'm really pleased with how much support has been shown and even to those who sent coins/packages out on their own.

This is just AWESOME!! I was telling a non-forums friend yesterday and she just couldn't believe how generous you guys are!!

 

I just wish I had more I could give....and still might be able to get you a little something...chocolate pretzels for the troops?? Not enough time for that I suppose....wil have to give it some thought!

I thought you might like a look at what is headed to Iraq, all your awesome donations ;) A rough count which does NOT include coins in sealed envelopes: slightly over 150 coins ;) That is absolutely crazy, lol. Coffee and Chocolate headed over too (compliments of dflye). Guess I better get to packing the box, I'll wait until the mail comes in tomorrow afternoon and then I'll head to town to mail out our 1st package ;)

 

Still can't believe the huge outpouring of support! B)
