    Third annual Secret Santa 2018

    This is always fun. Please join in. Thanks.
    Secret Santa is becoming a tradtion here on Arrowheads.com Names will be drawn on December 1st this year The original idea for this fun community gift trade came to me from our very own "JoshinMo". I think it is an absolute awesome idea. Please do not post your mailing address to the forum. Please send me your mailing address via Private Message. I will compile a list and then pair you off with someone else who has sent me their mailing address. You will not know who is sending you something until you get it in the mail. If we get an odd number of mailing addresses I will make up the slack myself. The gift could be something you found or made or bought. As long as it is hobby related. Metal detector guys if you wish to gift something you found that is cool. I know some folks would not want to part with personal finds. I do not want to exclude anyone from this. If you are new to the site and have never found anything you can shop for a book on ebay and join in the fun. It does not have to be an expensive gift. It could be a wood carving of an arrowhead a small shadow box. The gift could be something artifact or specimen collecting related. It could be a fossil. You could hand make a small pouch to stash arrowheads in. Make a small wood box or a frame even if you just want to knapp a modern point and gift it. Home made gifts are precious. .
    This will be fun. Please remember though do not post your mailing address on line. Get it to me in a private message. In the header of the PM write Secret Santa so I can spot them and add them to the list. Your whole name and address. In previous years folks sent me just a street address and assumed I know your first and last name. Please send you whole address. .

    If anyone has questions you can PM me or post the question here. There are no stupid questions only stupid answers. I am so looking forward to this. Everyone please join in. Deadline for submitting your address is November 30. I will provide you with the name and address I picked for you on December 1st. Do not tell the person ( remember it is secret santa) just make or buy a gift and mail it to that person. Please dont spoil the surprise let the person find out when the mail arrives.

        I noticed the picture you posted. I looked at it, scrolled down, and did a double-take as I realized that those are bison pulling the sled! Good one!

                  Eh, what the heck. Why not!

                  I will make a small note. I am very picky. Only Native American or Civil War related material please.

                  I can't wait to try this!

                    Okay, here's a question: Do you assign who gets to mail you a present? ;-)

                      I pick out of a hat. In the past I picked two at a time and those two mailed to each other. This year. I pick one he will mail to the next person picked and the second person mails to the third and so on then the last person picked mails to the first person I picked out of the hat. It is the best way and will work even if we have an odd number of people playing.
