    Okay Sarge, DC# is:

    0103 8555 7493 4916 8086

    The box will go in the mail on Tuesday, July 5th and Sarge should get it on Thursday, July 7th.

    The box is a little over five pounds so it's on the border of not being cost effective to ship via the US Mail. When the distance is relatively short, it's probably best to ship it through the US Mail but when boxes start getting over five pounds like this one AND you have to ship it kind of far, UPS Ground may save you some money. Feel free to use whatever method is best for you so long as it has some sort of delivery confirmation or tracking.

    There are plenty of cigar baggies, mailing labels, DC tickets and a couple of label sheets if you want to print the shipping labels on line and a "Sharpie" is included for you to write the number of the cigar on the baggie that corresponds to the number you list on the Put/Take sheet.

    I doubled up two cardboard boxes that bottles of booze come in and glued them together to make a very sturdy box so it SHOULD make it through the entire rotation. Again, if the box is in extremely poor condition, PLEASE find another box to ship the contents of the pass in.

    We're finally underway with this. Ggiese, please be sure to check with Marc Hortsch before you ship it to him since he's busy with his wedding plans an' all. We can put him in the rotation AFTER the Texas guys if need be.

    Depending on how quickly this gets turned around by the participants - usually around 6 - 8 weeks with 10 participants at the outside...

    Ggiese, let me know when you get this box if this will be an issue, and I'll make sure CC reworks the rotation.

    It looks that if I mail this tomorrow, it'll get to you by the 17th or 18th, which gives you two days turn around time... That seems workable??? CC, what do you think?
