Here's an idea.  Send someone an old fashioned Christmas card of the Murfreesboro Square...for free.  Robert Rickman tells how...

VERBATIM:

 

Celebrating 26 years in business, Bill Brison, owner of Appletons Creative Framers, has printed a replica antique card showing the County Courthouse decorated for the holidays. This is the second year he has offered the cards.

Brison says the postcards are free and if folks will write a note to someone they want to come home for Christmas, he’ll pay the postage to mail it.

It’s a bit of nostalgia in a day and age when we normally just send a text or e-mail, Brison said, I thought it might be fun to see what a handwritten note might do to let others know we miss them and would love for them to make it home for the holidays.”

Not that many years ago brothers and sisters, mothers and fathers, dropped a handwritten note to folks and let them know how much they were missed. “It might even be fun for children to write a note and who knows maybe some could be sent to the North Pole.”  Robert Rickman WGNS news.

One thousand of this years edition was printed and asked how many he mailed last year, Brison said close to 900 in all.

We are told the postcards are available at several locations around the square.
