Email received! ~ Happy Holidays ~ is one of my favorite holiday songs. Welcome to the fun!

[+MysticCache]

Just a few more days to sign up then I'll send everyone their mission " recipient " on November 15!

 

I will be sending you the name and address of one geocacher participating in the mission. You will want to mail your mission package no later than 12/1/2013 to make sure they receive by Christmas. Your package should contain one non-activated tag, one Christmas card and one postcard. You will also receive a mission package from someone with one new non-activated tag, Christmas card and postcard. The tag/bug can be any style as long as it is a regular size trackable. Personally I love, love, love, them all. I have a special "hitchhiker" ready for the new tag I will receive... so excited!

 

Welcome everyone! to the mission.

I had to try a couple of shops here as well before finding one suitable. Then the man behind the counter told me that the company printing them here was going out of business! Maybe folk don't bother sending cards. Usually we are home before the cards are if we send any when on holiday.

Waiting for a special tracking tag to arrive and will mail asap! So happy i made the cut

[+Gumbys4eva]

Finally found a postcard at a Hallmark store. I had checked multiple drug stores, dollar stores, even Target doesn't carry them! Now I just have to get everything together. So, for those of you having trouble finding a postcard, try Hallmark.

We are off and running in the 2013 Travel Tag/Bug & Christmas Card & Postcard Mission. Postcards seem to be phasing out in some parts it sounds like. I'm in Florida and I find them mainly in the "tourist" areas.

 

 

Happy mission and happy caching all. I'm excited to see everyone's updates.
