Nick, Zmom posted the names she drew on the board, then as you decided what to "give" to your person you could come in and post it.

Nick it was so cool.. we got our name and then "talked" to our person and found out what they liked, what types of charities they would want to support in aome way and then we still had some latitude in what we did or where we gave. And then reading about all the good deeds/donations and wishes was quite heartwarming.. Hippy that makes perfect sense to me.. I know it was a good part, interacting with the two people.. whoever gave in your name and whoever you gave for..

Yes Hipp I understand what you are saying. Hopefully that won't happen but if it does we can always start a thread like you said. I really enjoyed this last year, reading all the stories was awesome and I made some new friends!

Happy dance for all the newbies joining in and for last year's participants adding their names.

I would LOVE to do this, but my memory is so bad that you all will have to remind me when you do it. Someone email me to remind me, okay? I definitely think this is great!! I already have someone in mind, or do you tell us who to do and for whom it goes to?

Zeno, Zmom will put all the names in a hat and have her son draw them out to determine who "gifts" who (or whom, I always get that confused ). Then you can spend some time talking to that person and getting to know them better. Some people may have a fairly definite idea of what they would like, while others may just give you a general direction and leave the how and what up to you. One of the greatest thing about this is that last year a lot of people made a new good friend as they talked to get to know one another.

Hippy..I just read your post about "disappearing" members. We will have to have a solution for that. I am going to start another thread within this topic of "possible" charities..

On your 'No Discussion' thread will you be posting our preferences Zmom? I'm a little confused about the 'Discussion' thread, too.

I'll post the preferences from the "discussion". Just list a charity and if possible a link/address for it. I will keep a spreadsheet and update the list every few days. I am so excited about this. I think we have as many people as we did last year. I will have to dig up my old spreadsheet to find out how many participated last year.
