Thanks to my friends whose chose to contribute in addition to purchasing some calendars.
The first order is completely depleted when it arrives.
A special thanks to my friend who found one can contribute without even buying a calendar. You didn't have to do that, man. We had already selected your machine. That is one sweet looking ride.

Okay so here's where I am. First day ordering was available we had a real deluge. The first order (sixty calendars) was sold out in a day. I responded by placing an order for another batch. Second day the orders slowed down to less than ten percent of what they were the first day. I need orders to maintain a pace of four to six a day for the next two weeks to make me look like I know what I'm doing. Less than that and my colleagues will think I'm a dufus. If you're thinking you'll buy one of these calendars sooner or later and maybe even lend your efforts to support the VRCC now would be a really good time. I'm pretty sure when you get it you'll be proud to hang it on your home or office wall, maybe both. Hey, I have a solution. I can just buy a load of fifty myself and just give them away to both of my friends. Order your VRCC 2015 Wall Calendar from the VRCC

With such a limited production run, these are sure to become classics and increase in value. Don't be the one who said "I shoulda' ordered before they ran out."

I have some left over from years past if anyone would like to purchase and sit on them. I'm still waiting for someone to make my tension go away by ordering forty of them. It's not such an unreasonable expectation. That's still less than $900.

I hope folks are starting to notice the ad amongst the rotating banners. If so I can stop being dependent on keeping this on the front page. We did alright yesterday but I technically need about eight more days at six or seven per day. I'm told that some of our members get their contact through Facebook and no longer frequent the message boards. I'm not a big Facebook user so maybe one of you who is could post a calendar notice out there. For those who have already participated, thank you for your support and generosity to the VRCC.

Once more To The Top. If we have counted correctly we have nineteen left in the second batch. That means we're only a few calendars away from making me look almost like I know what I'm doing. What I look like isn't important to me, but not letting my colleagues down is. A big thanks to all of you who have participated in supporting the VRCC by purchasing a calendar and a special thanks to those who have contributed beyond. Get your calendar now before they're gone (of course that's just words. We won't run out. We'll just order more.). Order your VRCC 2015 Wall Calendar from the VRCC

The first batch of sixty from the printer, I'm told, is on my front porch. That means for the first sixty of you your calendars will be on their way with tomorrow's mail. I apologize again for not getting this done soon enough for you to have them as beautiful Christmas presents but we should have them to the most of you before this year ends. If you haven't yet ordered your calendar (or one for your mom) now is the time to get it done. Order your VRCC 2015 Wall Calendar from the VRCC

Hi Willow,
Don't worry about shipping mine out quickly. I won't be able to pick it up from the US till the new year anyways. Might as well let someone else who will receive it directly to their home enjoy it.

We will work with you either way. We charge a flat $3.00 for shipping. Some costs us a little less; some costs us more. We actually may have a way of getting them to European addresses reasonably. Order what you want. We'll get them to you. Order your VRCC 2015 Wall Calendar from the VRCC

Gordon, I have a Canadian shipping address for you. Doesn't it come to your home? Yes, you are right. I forgot. There was no difference in shipping. I'm so used to buying things and getting them shipped to the US, I forgot this one rare time I can actually get it shipped direct. Never mind.....

Thank you, Sodge. We'll have to wait for the next batch to come in but they should be on their way to you in just a few days. You're in a good company, well over fifty people.

We mailed out the first batch of calendars this afternoon. I apologize for it taking so much time before the first batch went out. This week permitted me less time than I thought to get that first bunch ready. When we arrived back home this afternoon, the second batch from the printer was on the porch. Our second bunch has been packaged, well enveloped, and will go to the post office tonight. I still have to deal with the international orders. If you haven't yet ordered your calendar (or one for your mom) now is the time to get it done. Order your VRCC 2015 Wall Calendar from the VRCC
