Secret Santa Interest?

SIGN UP THREAD HAS BEEN POSTED

Is anyone interested in doing a secret santa this year on FAOL? What I'm thinking is having those interested to sign up, then I will randomly assign everyone a "secret santa." Santa's job will be to research their assigned person by reading their posts here on FAOL, and pick out an appropriate fly fishing gift for them. There will be a price limit of $15 or $20. Everyone will mail their gifts on the same day (sometime in mid December).

Does this sound like something worth persuing? I'm willing to organize it if there is sufficient interest.
BTW, this thread isn't a signup. I'll start a new thread if we decide to do this that will cover all of the details.

I've participated in this for the last 3 or 4 years and would again.

It's fun, in my opinion.

I would but right now I'm overwhelmed with a lot of other stuff and just don't see it happening for me. If things were different I would jump in again. It was a riot last year:)

OK Gents,

Looks like we have enough folks to get this off of the ground. I will be posting a sign up thread November 1 and leave the sign up period open for 15 days. Everyone is welcome and there are no limits to the number of people participating.

More to follow...

The sign up period will be until November 15th, not just ONE DAY! He will have plenty of time to sign up.

I would be interested, merely out of curiosity, why more FAOL members do not participate in this little fun Holiday aside?
Anyone have any thoughts in this regard?

bobbyg,

I'm with you on this. I have been in every one we have had and it is a lot of fun. I think I enjoy reviewing all the posts of the person I get and trying figure out just what to send them. It's Christmas folks.......

I'd like to tip my toes into this gift exchange to see what it's like. It is always fun shopping in local fly stores for an item you hadn't considered before.
