The second batch of 2018 calendars is almost used up.  Orders are unsteady.  One day will be five and another day none.  I'll have to order another batch but the big question is how many?  The printer runs specials (sales) in December off and on.  Buying during one of the sales gives the VRCC more revenue.  If I order short and then have to order after the sales it diminishes the VRCC revenue.

So here's the request.  If you're pretty sure you'll be ordering calendars but have been putting it off, go ahead and order now so I will have a better idea when I schedule another shipment from the printer.

A little less than half the price of a calendar goes to support for the VRCC.  The sale of calendars and associated additional contributions is one of the three usual ways that funds are raised for the VRCC.

Calendar orders have about dried up.  Sooner or more pronounced than I had expected.  I placed the final order from the printer based upon last year's sales in December.  I hope I'm not going to be stuck with multiple dozens of leftovers.

If you haven't yet ordered your calendars now is a good time to do so.  Soon the pres will be wanting to get them off the order page.

it lists as 8.5 X 11 but when hung two pages are showing so it would be about 11 X 17 inches.

As of now, twenty-five.  I'm not hoping really strongly at this point to get them all gone, but I would like to reduce the overrun.   Smiley

LOL!  Too late.  The previous order was already processed.  You'll get two shipments, probably on the same day.

I'm down to just a couple more than a dozen calendars in the last bunch.  I surely could use ten or twelve new friends to help make it look like I know what I'm doing.

It's a fine calendar.

I guess now is the right time to ask, is there anyone who ordered a calendar more than a week ago and has not yet received it?

Yes, I should have been more specific.  Those outside of the U.S. may take a bit longer to arrive.  It's on its way.
