New England Lighthouse Lovers (NELL) is excited to present a limited quantity of collector’s pins. We will have these available for you at the Reunion. Any profit will benefit lighthouse preservation. These lighthouses were selected because of their significance to Harbour Lights and the reunion. Hooper Strait, being the Reunion event piece and Eddystone being Harbour Lights 10-year anniversary piece. You can have this beautiful set(s) reserved now for your pick-up at the reunion for an $8 donation per set. To order merely e-mail Frank Carbone at fcarbonejr@aol.com, and I will confirm your order by return e-mail. If you are not attending the reunion and are unable to have a friend pick up a set(s) for you, you can still receive a set(s) for $8 plus $3 shipping and handling per set. Send your order and check made out to “NELL” to Frank Carbone, 186 Hart Street, Beverly, MA 01915. Remember to include your mailing address and e-mail address if you have one.

Cool thread, what's all the other Clubs bringing to raise money?

Frank,
Great job on the posting, guess you can teach an old dog new tricks!!! Also wanted to thank you for all the work you have done on this pin project. I have the set already and you did a great job. I just wanted to mention that the pins are unique in that they have the NELL logo imprinted on the back and we hope this is the first set of many.

Very nice Frank. And Welcome to the Forums Penny!

Yes, Welcome to the Forums Penny. For those of you who have the latest Legacy you may see a picture of Penny on page 9 (she's holding a beautiful bouquette and the hand of her husband, Chuck, at their lighthouse wedding on June 23rd of this year).

Nice job with the pins Frank, they will make a wonderful momento plus help lighthouse preservation at the same time.

Frank, the pins look great! Can you tell us the actual size of each?

"Any profit will benefit lighthouse preservation."

Has a particular lighthouse been designation to receive the profits from the sale of these pins?

has a Preservation Committee that searches for lights that are in the active phases of renovation and demonstrated need. We have a matrix of criteria that we apply.
After we pay our considerable expenses, the support will be voted by the NELL membership. During the three years of NELL's existence, we have been priviledged to donate to several wonderful projects, and we want these to increase. We, by the way, have added Hooper Strait to our list of lights to consider. Thank you for your interest

Dear Collectors
The New England Lighthouse Lovers Club (NELL) wants to thank you for the many reservations I've received for the above pins we are bringing to the reunion. Your enthusiasm will benefit lighthouses in their preservation efforts. Thanks again Frank

Frank,

You are doing a great job with this pin project. I also wish to thank all of the lighthouse lovers who have ordered sets of these pins (not only for themselves but for friends who cannot make the reunion). I plan on wearing one set and displaying the other alongside my Harbour Lights in the curio cabinet. Thank you all for helping to preserve lighthouses for future generations to enjoy.

Wow Handsome Frank,
I can't believe how many pins you have sold already thru here; at this rate there will be none left to sell at the reunion!!! What a great idea to post this here.
This project along with our other fundraisers should make at least one very lucky lighthouse donation recipient this year of a donation that will be very substanstanial.

Keep the checks coming,
Penny, NELL Treasurer

Hi Penny,How many pins do we have??I said that they would sale like hot cakes!!! They are GREAT PINS.I hope we will still have some left,so people can get them at the reunion.Bear
