Description

During the month of November, the Juneau-Douglas City Museum will provide complimentary note cards including US postage and a card insert to anyone who chooses to write a personal note of encouragement or gratitude to someone in their lives.

In 2014, HB217 was signed into law by the 28th Alaska State Legislature, 2nd session, “an act establishing November 14 each year as Dr. Walter Soboleff Day”. Dr. Soboleff spent his life working with people, with the goal of higher education, self-respect, spiritual values, tolerance, and equality. Those fortunate enough to have known him may fondly remember his frequent handwritten notes and cards. As Dr. Soboleff once said, “When you give, feel good about it”.

Drop by the City Museum in November between 10:00am and 4:00pm Tuesdays through Saturdays to pick up a card, an insert and a stamp. Feel free to write your note while visiting the Museum. You may choose to mail your card yourself or have the Museum deliver it to the post office for you.
