Pen Pal Club
Monday June 15 2020 - Thursday June 15 2023
Libraries across the Kootenays are bringing back the lost art of correspondence. Join the club and we will match you up with someone to correspond with by snail mail. This is a great opportunity to encourage one another in a trying time!
Here is how it works:
Register by emailing Melodie Rae at mstorey@nelson.ca and answer these four questions:
1) Are you a kid/teen/adult?
2) Do you want a kid/teen/adult pen pal?
3) What are your interests?
Give us a few days, but eventually the library will match you with someone in the Kootenays who is a good fit for you and we will tell you a little about your new pen pal.
Then you write a letter or create some artwork for your new pen pal.
Send it by taking a picture of it and emailing it to Melodie Rae at mstorey@nelson.ca
OR
Send it to the library address:
Nelson Public Library
c/o Melodie Rae Storey/Pen Pal Club
602 Stanley Street
V1L 1N4
We will forward your mail to your pen pal (your privacy will be protected – all mail will be forwarded through the library).
