RMOL election! Make it fun!

Shall we make it a party?

We've got an idea cooking for Nov that involves borrowing the RMA building. We've got a loved one serving in Afghanastan (sp) and thought we'd organize our second packathon to send Thanksgiving gift boxes to his (and other..) units. Kids art station, bakathon too.. should we roll it all into one fabulous extravaganza?

Let me know peeps.

Oh yeah...

How about the Lurker Party? Read everything but rarely, if ever post? Hmmmm...the question is, how do we nominate them?

Thanks Matt. The one at my house was really fun and hugely successful. Kerry at the Post Office gave me some pointers for the future so we could make it very easy for everyone. $10 bucks mails a good box and it takes two weeks. You should of seen the kids "Thank you" cards. Excellent! Our guy in Afganistan (sp) set up a "store" for all the other people in his unit so they could "shop" for everything they wanted/needed. Then some things went to a traveling Chaplain. Our hero is looking out for all the people falling through the cracks. Some of the really young enlisted don't have big networks of people like the family men do. Anyway, very rewarding. We've got a wish list that I can post. I might ask you to post an announcement on RM.com after we reserve the RMA building.. Would you do that? We can handle everything from there but the public announcement might be cool coming from you.

Other questions: How do you pick the winner? If they start to campaign, do they lose?
