CITY/REGION: Oak Ridge Tennessee / East Tennessee MEETUP PLACE: Oak Ridge Public Library, small meeting room DATE: Saturday, August 26, 2023 TIME: 2-4 pm eastern standard time MEETUP PLAN:
Hello fellow Postcrossers! We will meet in the small meeting room in the public library (1401 Oak Ridge Turnpike, Oak Ridge Tennessee).
Please RSVP by commenting below! I’ve been advised that the max number in that room is 20-25. If we have more than that interested, I will need to know in enough time to rent the larger auditorium area!
During this meetup we will take the time to get to know each other and sign cards. I’m working on a meetup card using some digitized vintage photographs (with permission from the public library archives). I’m not sure how much they will cost as I need to do some research on printing - if you have input for a local print shop I’d love to hear it!
Ideas on what to bring:
~Address book or lists of the addresses that you would like to send cards to.
~Postcards, stickers, washi tapes, or other items that you’d like to share, give away or trade.
~Items from your postcard collection, stamps, etc that you would like to show & tell.
~Only drinks with lids please! (They just got new carpeting and want to avoid spills.)

Hi all! I have two card designs and have ordered 100 copies of each. I’m asking for 50 cents per card to cover printing/shipping costs. I’m gifting 2 to anyone who comes in addition to the ones that you buy. Message me if you have any questions!
I’m really hoping to make it!!! My parents might be visiting that weekend. If they do not, I’LL BE THERE! I would LOVE to join. Thank you so much for hosting this!! I’ll buy a bunch of the custom postcards if I’m able to come!
Awesome, thank you! It’s about 5 hours away from me, but I love to take small day trips, and Tennessee is my favorite state, so I’ll be coming. Plus it’s on the weekend.
With permission from the public library and their archives of Ed Westcott’s photography, I designed and ordered some vintage photography cards for the meetup!
I’m willing to gift 2 per person who comes and if you want more I think fifty cents per postcard will cover the cost of printing/shipping. I should be getting them in a week or so! Invite others if you know anyone else who is in the area and does Postcrossing.
I cannot even believe that I lived in East TN for 17 years and never knew about postcrossing til TikTok. I would have loved to meet up with y’all if I was still living in Oak Ridge on California Avenue. :0(
I’m so excited, because there is also a Manhattan Project National Park in Oak Ridge, so I’m making a whole weekend out of it! I have no Friday classes in college, so I’m super happy to come!
