I'm gonna get this fired up so we can get our "kids" picked by Dec 1st. I know I am running a bit behind schedule here so I apologize in advance but life has been crazy.
We still should be able to pull this off .

It's a bit past that time of year, time to get the Secret Santa rolling again. Here's how it works:

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING BEFORE SIGNING UP THANX

Let me know in this thread if you are interested in participating. You must have achieved Veteran status or higher to be part of this. The cutoff date to get your name in will be November 8th, no exceptions will be made to this. You will then be assigned, at random, another person from the list to play Santa for. You will send your recipient a total of six cigars. This will include 5 good quality sticks, which you think your recipient will enjoy. One of these five sticks should be designated as a New Years Eve smoke, typically people have done this with the highest end or most rare stick they send, though this is not required. The sixth cigar you send is the "Lump of Coal" cigar, and should be a smoke that would be worthy of giving to a cigar mooch or annoying relative.

The cigars MUST be sent in time to arrive before Christmas. Please take into account that mail is typically a little slower at that time of year. Also, please remember this is a SECRET Santa, you aren't supposed to let your recipient know you are their Santa. (Until the gift arrives, anyway.)


PLEASE NOTE THE DEADLINE TO SIGN UP IS 11/30/2021 AT 11:59 PM

In as always, thanks for running this again Kent! :dancing:
