I KNOW IT'S EARLY BUT------------------------------

Oct 28, 2009 8:55 AM
What would everyone think of having a Christmas gift exchange? I'm running one on another discussion board and thought I would ask your opinions.

I am more than happy to participate but too busy to host one, these make for nice memories :) I treasure the gifts I have from years past from my Park friends

I thought of hosting one again but decided against it because I'm not in the Park enough anymore.

First, and foremost, Thanks for offering to host an exchange.

Unfortunately, I cannot participate for several reasons
(mostly financial, but also time constraints, etc).

that being said,
:(
I'm not sure if you were around the park when we did do
exchanges before.

Several people have left the Park over the exchanges (or
lack thereof).

So please don't feel slighted if you aren't getting an
overwhelming response like some of the other boards.

:-x
yrag,
Also if you do a "Park" exchange, I would suggest that you
dont open it up to just anyone who asks. Make sure that person
has posted fairly regularly in the park. Not that I would want
to exclude anyone from the fun, but we had several
"hit and run" people who we never heard from after the
exchange.
and please don't think that I am trying to tell you how to host
an exchange.
I just thought you might like to know why a bunch of us havent signed on.
:-x
thanks again for offering to host.
Best wishes to all who participate.
So much fun to get gifties from different places.
:)

I would defintely participate, yrag. If I hosted I'd post the deadbeats' names this time around. ;) As to limiting it to regular posters, I don't know who's a regular anymore. Just know a lot of peeps have disappeared over the years. I still have a list from Christmas 4 or 5 years ago.

Nonny, thanks for your input. I wasn't aware of the previous situations regarding exchanges. That being said, I would still like to have one here this year. I will put up a separate posting for those interested later on today.

:(

I hope I didnt hurt anyone's feelings. I didnt phrase that post
quite right.
:(

I just wanted yrag to know that some park peeps might
still be having bad vibes.

I LOVE the exchanges. Just cant do it at this time.
and since I didnt see anyone else stating on the board why
there wasnt a huge positive response, like the exchanges on
some of the other boards, I thought I might offer a
little insight as to past exchanges that might be holding
some of us back.

Happy HOLLYdaze to all.
:)

I don't think anyone's feelings are hurt, certainly not mine. Sorry you won't be able to join us.
