PEN PALS! Aunt Pammy's Old Time Pen Pals--AP-OT-PP!
Tired, fed-up, grumpy? Are you growing weary of the phrase “In these uncertain times...”? Do you know what day it is? Do you even care?
Well sir, it’s Aunt Pammy to the rescue.
Presenting Aunt Pammy’s Old Time Pen Pals!
You’ll be given 3 folks to which you will send a handmade card or letter. In turn, three other people will send you a card or letter.
Your official commitment is one card or letter to your 3 assigned names.
Please register by filling out the form. This info will also be on the Facebook group Aunt Pammy's Valentine Exchange. Join this group for updates and info.
Deadline to sign up is May 30th.
Pen pal names/addresses emailed to you June 1 or 2.
Fill out this form! Click here!
The Details:
Participants need to be age 15 and up.
I'm sorry we cannot accommodate younger kids.
You will be assigned 3 people.
You will make a card OR buy a card AND/OR write a letter to each person.
Ideally, 3 different people will get your name. Potentially you could have 6 penpals...
There's always the chance your "send to" and "receive from" list will have an even match. In that case, you'd get 5 unique penpals. Two matches? 4 pen pals...etc. etc.
Here's an example:
Pamela sends to----Billy, Sarah, Tony
Pamela receives from----Laura, Marie, Jennifer
That would equal 6 unique pairings.
Another:
Pamela sends to----Billy, Sarah, Tony
Pamela receives from---Billy, Laura, Jennifer
That would equal 5 unique pairs...and so on.
Let's talk about what you send.
1. Keep communication positive.
You may take great joy in doomsday jokes, but they can be pretty hard on others.
2. No political jokes, political memes, political opinions.
3. Keep things rated G or PG for any communication to or between young adults (15-20).
4. You can write a simple letter, you can make a lovely card, you can buy a card.
We are primarily a group of "makers", so creativity and artistic expression is encouraged, but I want to give the non-creatives an option.
People often have trouble receiving the assignment email from me.
The assignments are mailed from a web service provider, not exactly ME per se, so
your email may flag it as spam.
To fix this: add AuntPammysVEX@workmail.com to your email contact list.
Another thing that works is for you to send ME an initial email to "teach" your account that
we aren't spam...
So, send me an email before May 30 just to say "hi".
Your commitment is to send each of your 3 people one card/letter.
If you choose to continue to correspond with your people, fantastic!
But your obligation is just the one initial card.
If you have questions or concerns, please contact me directly:AuntPammysVEX@workmail.com
Sincerely,
Pamela
