We will be shipping them to you soon. We apologize for the delay. We will work to do a better job getting these certificates out for the 2012 event.


Update (11/15/2011):

A big "Thank You! " to all who made this event a success!

We had about 200 confirmed contacts during this event. The website received 182 visits to the special event page during the weekend (based on UU’s). We received a total of 8 instantaneous paypal certificate requests. In general we think this special event was a success. It was our first and although not many of the clubs members participated, we did a great job spreading the word and educating people about Elizabeth Cady Stanton and her legacy. We will wait for the rest of the certificate request sent by mail to get here and we will be mailing them out shortly. Thank you for your participation!
