Hello and Happy Summer Farmgirls!
We are once again exchanging names to send each other fun and unique pieces of art through the mail! I will send each of you an email by June 31st, 2012 with the name and address of your partner.
THEME (optional) : The State Fair
DEADLINE FOR MAILING : August 15, 2012
COST : Free! Mail art can be made of scraps, can be a postcard, can be a decorated recipe. The only requirements are that it be fun, creative, and mailable, in that order. :)
Thank you so much to each member who participates for making this exchange so fun and cool and we welcome new members at any time.
Hope everyone is having a wonderful summer, Rachael La Rock
Happy Trails!

This month, we are asking for folks who feel so inclined to send a mail art without getting mail art back to send to Jacob Fesher, a kid who is fighting cancer and could use a little fun in the mail. Here is his address : Jacob Fesher University of Ohio Children's Hospital JCP3 Room #87 200 Hawkins Drive Iowa Cty, IA 52242
Thank you so much for your help in cheering him up and have a fabulous farmgirl day! Rachael
Happy Trails!

I don't know how old Jacob is, the info was sent to me by another farmgirl, but hoping she forgives me, I confess I don't remember which farmgirl sent it to me. Sorry! I think it would be great to send him a little cheer. Sometimes folks just need to know that they matter. Love to all you farmgirls! Rachael
Happy Trails!

Hello gals, Just wanted to let you know that I am sending out names but some of them might come tomorrow (the 1st) as I have a big event at the Botanical Garden tonight and a kid coming home from CA to MO at the same time! So please be patient. I promise you will get it asap and have a great summer day today!
Happy Trails!

Might want to follow up on the child with Cancer as I called the hospital and they were not able to locate a patient with that name. (University of Iowa by the way). Maybe your first contact would know if he is an outpatient now.
Please let us know if you hear something.
OR WE CAN JUST SEND CARDS TO THE CHILDREN'S CANCER UNIT !!!
