A couple of updated pages for you to look at
and comment on if you like. The second page is
awaiting some text from the Vermont Architect,
aka Viking aka Husband of the Stamp Carver:
Erik Davis

Mitch DER Mad Stamper has been helping me with web
stuff recently and I greatly appreciate it.

Lynn will be happy to know I'm not going to ask
you about colors anymore. What we have is what
we're going with. Its like teal & sky blue
I think. That's it until the technology
improves and allows us to customize it more.

I had thought about something called "Kids Corner"
specifically designed for kids. Any comments?
BTW, Bob Summers (AK) is using the Letterbox USA
page (specifically his clues sets) to teach kids
in his school about letterboxing. Cool, huh?

Later,
Dan'l

I love the idea of a "Kids Corner." If you have the time to do it, it
would be a nice addition. Maybe kids could post their own messages? Or
drawings?

I too love the idea of a Kid's corner of some sort. What if it also had
some info geared at helping other teachers like Bob Summers, set up a
letterbox teaching unit for their kids. To me, getting classes involved
has many positive things to teach: orienteering, clue writing, local
history, art/craft, teamwork, letterBOOKS, community interface, etc.etc.

I'll dig out the info I found about the work the schools were doing
along the VT / NH border towns (Nisa - are you listening?). As someone
said, lead the kids and the parents will follow.

This is the idea to build upon for next spring!
Bravo!
Erik
