[OrRando] Next Year ... a pizza and beer "Packet Party"

[Susan France]

Could be true. I have gotten 3 volunteers so far. What I forgot to mention
and what these volunteers know, is that we don't buy beer in this house. It
is all my son's and his girlfriends homebrew. My laundry room is lined with
Carboys in various stags of fermentation. And we have a dedicated fridge for
the "Regional Beer Administrator".

Susan.

  nine rando's doing the work of three?  If I had to speculate I'd think
maybe more like 3X as long.  I mean, think of all those cookies, and chips,
and hot coffee, cuppanudes, and sport drink that would be involved.

    Better count me in.  If you get 9 volunteers will the tasks get
completed in 1/3 the time?

    for anyone who helps me:

      a.. sort about 250 brevet and permanent cards
      b.. Print 150+ envelopes
      c.. lick ACP certificates and puts them on the correct card
      d.. put cards in the correct envelope
      e.. stuff personalized RUSA applications in the correct envelope
      f.. stuff personalized ORR applications in the correct envelope
      g.. fridge magnets in each... cutting magnets is like making bread...
therapeutic
      h.. business cards
      i.. ACP medals, double checking with submission results and RBA notes
      j.. Sort 150+envelopes
      k.. Newsletter?? Who did the newsletter? OK, you might not get a
newsletter
      l.. Postage...hmm there's a difference between Bert's bulging packet
and our much thinner envelope of drop-in Populaire riders...weigh envelopes
      m.. Write out checks for those who overpaid for some reason or
another..
      n.. Fleche Certificates...next year's addition
    I think you get the idea. Next year I'll need about 3 volunteers to help
with this end of year chore.



    But for this year... I appreciate everyone's patience. I'm still waiting
for 67 ACP medals which have just arrived in the US from France. But then,
there are dozens of RBAs waiting for medals from France too. I'll be sending
you 2006 packets when they are all complete.



    Cheers,

    Susan.
