Attendees at last month's Akron Postcard Club
Show us your postcards and tell us your stories at the May meeting of the Akron Postcard Club!
The theme for the May meeting of the Akron Postcard Club is “Show & Tell” – a time to show off your own postcards and share the stories that come with them. To accommodate all attendees, we ask that you select a single story to tell and bring a single card or small handful or cards that relate to that story.
What story should you tell? Anything goes! Here are a few prompts to get the creativity flowing:
What was the card that first made you interested in postcards?
Do you collect a particular type of postcards?
Is there a special postcard you received from a friend or family member that you cherish?
Did you inherit postcards from a family member?
What postcard reminds you of a special trip?
We can’t wait to hear your stories and peek at your postcards!
