Are we doing a Holiday Card Exchange this year? Hilde and I were moving last year and didn't get to join in the fun. We would love to exchange cards this year.

I would love to but someone would need to coordinate the list. Dee
I was wondering the same thing this morning!
By the way, a cousin of mine posted this address on his FB wall, if you would like to send a card to an ill or injured soldier...
A Recovering American Soldier
c/o Walter Reed Army Medical Center
6900 Georgia Avenue, NW
Washington, DC 20307-5001
I double-checked on the web site, and since it isn't meant for a pen pal setup, they ask you not to include photos or clippings, your home address - city is fine, no street address, and mail by December 7.
I'm sorry Julia, but it's a hoax - Walter Reed is closed, here's what I found:

I don't mind getting the list together. So I'll start a new thread where they can add their names.

Thanks, Darcel!
Ouch, Marcia - that link closed down my computer. Here's what I found, with an updated address:
Holiday Mail for Heroes
To find out more information about Holiday Mail for Heroes please click the envelope below.
The deadline for having cards to the P.O. Box is Friday, December 7th. Holiday cards received after this date cannot be guaranteed delivery.
