Default A question on Pelican Bay SHU

Hello!
Just wondering what you guys do about sending birthday cards and things in the SHU bay.
Now I know you can't send photos that are gloss so I take it normal birthday cards are out????
What do you send on special occasions? and where do you get them from?

Thanks guys

no no no, you can send photos just not polaroids regular pic's are fine and they can have all the cards we can send it. You can also send in paper and envelopes who told you they can't have pic's?

Hey barbara,
Colby said I have to send only matte pictures not glossy!
So can I send a normal card even though it may be shiny or whatever?

Joanna,

I sent a lot of Christmas or b-day cards to SHU, most of them with glitter, and none of them were sent back to me.

Lupine can you tell me more about the books ? My friend would love that. I can send paperback books monthly? Is that correct? Wow I just figured I couldn't that they could only get quarterly packages! Thanks

Hi, I have sent books into my son over the years but I always had paperwork from him. The SHU only allows yearly packages not quarterly and you can only send them once you have the paper work sent to you by your guy. Love Barbara
