What I expect user groups to send me is a box/envelope/container of their user group stickers. I’m
asking for *at least 50*.
Say for example we have 25 UGs participate (By sending stickers), we will take 25 envelopes and put
2 stickers from every UG in each envelope. Every UG that sends stickers gets an envelope back.
Obviously it will likely be an odd number and my plan is to return any UG’s stickers that didn’t
get stuffed into envelopes back into the envelope going to them.
