Museum-L constantly suprises me.  When I saw the first message I thought you were trying to organise a day when the public could come and learn how to identify (recognise) different types of historic bricks.

Good luck with your fundraising.

I should clarify my statement about our brick program.  It is being done in conjunction with a building program, and our contractor will be taking care of our brick, which relieves some of our problems.

  We've had a brick drive in the past. Initially it was a great success and raised some funds. However, over the long term it became an albatross. One problem we (and other groups) have had is - who lays the bricks when they get here? Also, the sales have slowed down a lot. It takes a long time to fill the minimum order and people when their bricks don't get placed post-haste.  We also have A LOT of empty spaces to fill up in front of our Depot. I would recommend doing the sales for a limited period of time and knowing exactly how many bricks you want to sell.
   
  We were selling the bricks for $50. Another segment of our organization is taking over the sales and will be selling them for $100. I'm just happy not to have to worry about it anymore!

    Hello,
    I am writing this email on behalf of the Great Overland Station.  We are considering a brick recognition drive in June.  I am seeking more detailed information on how to implement such an idea. 
     
    Any information you can provide would be very helpful :)
