MEETUP PLAN: Please join us down in the bayou for a Postcrossing Meetup! We will be in the Conference Room at the Main Library from 2:30pm-4pm with postcards, pens, snacks, drinks, and new friends! Bring any cards you wish to swap or simply show off. Hope to see you there!
Please make sure to read the Meetup Guidelines before signing up for a meetup.
I am providing 50 postcards to split amongst the attendees. If you wish to donate for them you are welcome to do so, but I don’t expect payment. I just love to share this hobby with others!
Hannah,
I’ve been a member of Postcrossing since 2011 and just received a postcard with the invitation information from Cindy. I am planning on being there, and I want to thank you for putting this together! Cindy’s postcard was only the 2nd postcard I’ve received from my own state, Louisiana, so I feel very fortunate to have found out about the meetup. Synchronicity? Maybe. Incredible? Definitely! I will bring a variety of postcards from my stash for giving, and also some for swapping.
hi guys, i’m not from the US but will be in Louisiana for the meeting… does anyone know where I could buy Louisiana themed postcards? does goodwill have any? thanks in advance

Houma, LA 70360-6072 is having their 40% July sale. Their 35 cents postcards are 21 cents this month. It is mostly plantations but I don’t mind for the price.
Another place that I like to purchase postcards is at the gift shop at Storyland in City Park in New Orleans. The last time I was there, postcards were 50 cents. Any other locals have favorite spots?
