I am new to postcrossing and from Pittsburgh. Do I have to register or just show up. What are the hours?

HI,

You just have to come. If you have a rubber stamp with your name be sure to being it. There will be lots of meetup postcards to autograph and send to yourself and friends.

Enjoy the day!

Hi, I plan to attend. This will be my first inperson Postcrossing meeting! You mentioned rubber signature stamps; where do you get those?

Thank you for organizing this and look forward to meeting everyone.

HI Tracey,

I look forward to meeting you.

I get my preinked stamper from Vistaprint.com. You can design your stamp, send them a .jpg of your design and they will send it to you. There are other online places to have one made, but I have an account at vistaprint so use them. Put rubber stamp in a search engine. Several will appear.

Enjoy the day!

I am planning on making it. Hopefully it wont snow. I happen to have a day off friday Nov.18. Can we buy meet up cards there?

HI,

The meetup postcards are free for those who attend the meetup. I will be helping a friend with her table. Look for me at Susan Lane’s table. Or ask anyone. Most people know me.

I look forward to meeting you,

I’m so excited to have found this meetup before it happens. I’m fairly new to Postcrossing (just over a year in) and LOVE the community. I happened to check for meetups near me, and happily, I’m just 6 miles from York! I will definitely attend. I’d love to glean intel from other locals about where to get new postcards locally. I’ve found it more and more difficult to find postcards from my own community and end up buying online. Anyway, I’m looking forward to meeting some people in real life!
