ServicePens: Pens For Servicemen new
      #4993937 - 08/08/10 02:06 PM

Hi y'all,

I'm collecting pens for our Servicemen and women and I'm hoping all of you will participate -- some more than once or twice.

I belong to a professional organization which supports our servicemen.

Each year at our previous annual conferences in June, we've donated $5,000.00 in phone cards to our Servicemen.

This year, I'm hoping to also collect and donate 5,000 pens.

So, here's your advanced notice:

Please help me by creating a pen or as many pens as you wish to donate to our Service men and women.

If you choose to participate, please mail your pen contributions to me at the address below and include a brief
description of each pen: material, finish, and kit. Also, if you have a business card, feel free to include one with each pen.

Thanks to all who participate.

My mailing address:

Gary Greenberg
PO Box 457
McIntosh, FL 32664

Thanks CK. Other than mine, yours might be first!

I need to start a photo album; nearly 50 pens so far.
That's 1% of the goal.

I'm still at six and will do my best to do some more.
I haven't forgotten, I just haven't been able to get in the shop.

Great cause, thanks for doing this for our troops. I'm at 4 pens myself but I don't have my lathe set up so I have to do them through Woodcraft's Turning for Troops events. My 11 yr old daughter did her first a few weeks ago, a nice one out of purpleheart.
