Dear Santa Claus Network Member-
The Possible Dreams team, Mrs. Claus, the elves and I all hope you had a Merry
Christmas. I know I did, especially since Mrs. C. baked all my favorite cookies and
cakes!
Every year the workshop seems to be busier than the year before. However, Mrs.
Claus and I still like to set aside some time to have a cup of cocoa while we write a note
to all of the important people in our lives.
So, this year we would like to share some exciting news about changes to the SCN club
benefits for 2009. Mrs. Claus and I want to help the environment and to reduce
global warming to keep the North Pole at the perfect temperature.
By putting all of the updates and newsletters about Possible Dreams Clothtique
Santas on the world wide web instead of printing and sending them through the mail,
we can save lots of trees and use less energy.
The great thing about this change is that our members will have access to the
interviews, contests, list of retirements, and fun facts faster than ever before and
we can help save the elves favorite ice skating pond at the same time. But to make
sure you are notified of updates please visit the Department56 website
at www.department56.com and click the link at the bottom of the left corner
to register your email address with our web site elves. They will make sure you are
notified when there is something new to share about Possible Dreams.
Until then...
Ho, Ho, and a Happy New Year!
-Santa
PS- I hope you enjoy reading through the enclosed Field Guide. For a list of newly retired
Possible Dreams products with item numbers and suggested retail prices please visit

to share her photos. See if you can
remember the dates some of these were introduced. If
you want to share some photos of your collection, please
email us your photos to MsLitTown@Dept56.com.
We’d love to share them as well.
