The program will begin with a history of Valentine's Day and how it became the greeting card money maker it is today.  It will also discuss how the Victorians used the new and very efficient U.S. postal system to spread the love and popularity of Valentine's Day all across the United States.

 

Please bring a cherished Valentine card from your own collection to share, or just bring the one you get this year!
