Re: DC:/MD:/VA: Winter Gather When? Where?

Surprisingly, we will be in the area around this time AND we are
totally excited to get an opportunity to letterbox AND we are
especially looking forward to meeting area letterboxers if at all
possible!!!

Our preferences for this gathering are:

When--
1st: 31st Jan
2nd: 7 Feb

Where--
1. Downtown DC
2. Northern VA
3. MD

Fondly,

dvn2r ckr, rnrB & trkr
DuPont, WA

Any of those dates work for me! MD or DC would be ideal. Can't wait, this would be my first gather!

hello all,

Hopefully I will be back home in VA during any of those dates....so go ahead and count NewBe1 plus 3 to the gathering.

I have a few freshly carved stamps from Iraq that I am ready to plant on the east coast.

Regards,

NewBe1

Our family has been letterboxing, geocaching, and
bookcrossing since this past August. Just recently
discovered these group mailings. Nice for keeping
updated. We might venture out for the described
Winter gathering. Sure would love to meet more persons
who love these adventurous hobbies! The locations and
dates all seem doable at this time. -Wordfried (from
