3rd Annual Cigars for Troops DriveIt's that time of year again! Even though the holiday season is a few months away, starting early will give everyone who wants to participate time to send a care package. Here are the previous years' posts:

http://www.cigargeeks.com/index.php?topic=5894.0The basic rules:
*The cutoff will be
October 31st for getting packages/donations in the mail to me. This will allow me enough time to get them shipped and the soldiers receive them before the holidays.
*Send as many cigars as you would like. Even a fiver will make a difference. My address is in my profile.
*Packages can be drop shipped to me from vendors. Members have done this in years past with success.
*Please PM me if you send a package. I'd like to avoid boxes sitting on my doorstep in case I'm traveling.
*If you would prefer, a cash donation can be made to cover shipping. Last year the approximate cost was $80 to ship 3 large packages. I will keep everyone updated in case we have enough to cover shipping.
*I will keep a running list of those that have expressed interest along with if I received the package. If you commit to donating early on and decide it can't be done, no harm, no foul.
Last year, I created a virtual humidor with all the cigars. Depending on the response, I might do that again this year.
As always, feel free to post any questions!
