If anyone would still like to buy the caches from the "First Day of Issue" at Tybee and the Cape Lookout cache which is also stamped with a special "Transfer of Ownership"...

http://www.nps.gov/calo/stamps.htm (shows photos of the Cape Lookout cache...scroll to the bottom of the page.)

The Outer Banks Lighthouse Society has a supply of each, and is selling them as a fundraiser. All profit benefits the OBLHS lighthouse preservation fund.

The number of "First Day" are limited, but we possibly will be getting some more...we have plenty from Cape Lookout.

The "First Day' are $15, including shipping.
The "Cape Lookout" are $12, including shipping.
Buy more than one, and I can offer a price break for shipping them in one package.

They will be shipped in a padded envelope between light cardboard to assure they arrive without creases or bends.

If you are interested in purchasing these items please let me know(email or private message) and I will forward your information to the Outer Banks VP and Director of Fundraising. I just don't want to give out her personal information with out her knowledge or permission.

Thanks to all who have responded to this fundraiser so far!! The Tybee First Day Cachets are already sold out. Those who have sent me messages up to this point will be receiving more information about the cachets from the Outer Banks Lighthouse Society in the next few days.

If you are interested in the Cape Lookout cachets these are still available.

Thanks for the info, Shirin! I ordered one of each!

Thanks for all of those orders! Keep 'em coming. There are still Cape Lookouts available!

Shirin has been kind and generous to post this information and relay it to me. Now, I'm a member too!! so she doesn't have to be the middle "man".

So you can send yor requests for the Cape Lookout caches directly to my e-mail. We have plenty of stock of these...but had a very limited supply of the Tybee "First Day", and as Shirin posted earlier, we sold out on those last night. I'm still trying to get more...and will let you know if that happens.

The proceeds go to the Outer Banks Lighthouse Society's preservation fund.

Thanks for the great response we've had so far!

There is plenty supply of Cape Lookout as well.

More are on the way Judy!

The orders for the "First Day" Tybee stamp cache and the Cape Lookout cache are pouring in. The response has been tremendous.

This morning before leaving for a "lighthousing" weekend, I'm making sure the ones that I've received checks from so far, get packaged and mailed.

You can send me a message here to place an order.

"Buy a Stamp Cache and...help save a lighthouse...or Two"...funds to benefit the Outer Banks Lighthouse Society preservation efforts.

Many thanks to those who have ordered!

Hey...thanks a bunch, Shirin!

It always helps to see what you're buying.

Please keep those orders coming in...this is a fundraiser to benefit the Outer Banks Lighthouse Society preservation fund. There's been good response from here and from Lighthousing.net, and we thank each of you for your orders.

We hope to get the ball rolling on Bodie Island Lighthouse...maybe get the work started by next year.

Then there's Cape Lookout as well. If the funds are raised...within a few years, when you visit the Outer Banks, you will be able to climb both lighthouses!

Just send me a message here to buy the caches.
