Daughter is starting strings in school and is thrilled so if you have a viola laying around collecting dust I have a lil one that would put it to very good use. Can even need some work done as that would still be far better then what she has now = nothing LOL! Thanks in advance for consideration! :)

Discovery Classics "When The Dinosaurs Roamed" (pretty cool) and "The Little Princess" (may need to be cleaned).

Please do not contact me about these unless you're willing to set a time to come get them, and actually show up. I'm flexible and I can leave them on my sheltered porch for you any time of the day or night, but I seriously don't have time for no-shows.

ADMIN: Traveling Treasure Box - FOUND again!     

Posted by: "TacomaAreaFreecycle-owner@yahoogroups.com" TacomaAreaFreecycle-owner@yahoogroups.com

Thu Feb 11, 2010 11:54 pm (PST)



How exciting! The Tacoma Area Freecycle(TM) Traveling Treasure Box is on the move for the 6th time!

But before we go into that... We would like to thank all of our members for their patience and understanding while trying this fun community offering out. We have received many responses from our members saying that they love the idea and like how the ADMINs help them keep track of where the box is headed. However, we have decided to change this a bit by not sending this ADMIN as a Special Notice. Now, it will be sent as a normal post as we would like to save the ADMINs for important announcements to the group. We hope that by doing this, it will please everyone. =)

One thing we would like to mention before telling you who the next lucky participant is that when asking for items, please be polite! Just stating "I want it!" most likely will *not* get you the items you are asking for. A simple "Please" and "Thank You" goes a long way.

Now, onto our regularly scheduled program...

Our lucky participant *drum-roll please* Julie FOUND the Treasure Box!!

Will you be the next lucky member to find the Traveling Treasure Box? There will be only 5 more lucky participants before the Treasure Box ends for this round.

Keep a sharp eye out over the next few days for the Offer.

Have a great day!
Your Friendly Tacoma Area Freecycle(TM) Moderators
