Posts: 202 (09/21/09 15:01:10) Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	There is no connection between the Official GL Fan Club and GLForever. I received permission from P&G on Friday at 4:30 pm to continue a gl fan club. the site will be glforever.com and I hope to have it up by friday. I have contacted several of the cast and let them know and asked them to participate with the site. There will be no membership dues and no official GL merchandise sold. There will be links to actor driven items such as cd's and concert schedules. I am considering an ebay type site for members that wish to trade or sell merchandise they own. Of course I am not willing to part with anything I own, but some people may be. The site will be an information exchange with articles, videos and interviews as well as appearances both singularly and group like So Long Springfield. I will also continue www.keepourlighton.com until atleast 4-2-10 which is when it is scheduled to expire. We will decide on continuing or ending keepourlighton in March 2010. Please send me imput that you would like to see on the club site.

Posts: 203 (09/22/09 05:29:52) Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Laura I have P&G approval. Also Beth is a personal friend of mine and has been colaborating with me on a project so please dont speak for her. Or any of the other actors who are personal friends. The official club was closed to membership as of September 18, 2009. I have spoken with Mindy personally and she closed the club because she stated it would not be fair to charge a membership for a show that is no longer on the sir. So if the Offucial club is still open, it is not open to new members. Thank you Shari

I also stated this club is in no way affiliated with the Official GL fan club which is closed to new membership. This is for fans of the show, free of charge, since it is unethical to charge for a defunct show, we didn't even do that with Star Trek back in the day.

I don't want to "butt in" but Laura is the president of Beth's fan club and speaks to her almost daily at this point (we are working on her charity luncheon this Friday.) I think Laura can probably speak for Beth. I will ask around at the luncheon about the old fan club. Perhaps they are just not charging anymore, but people can still sign up to receive e-mail alerts, etc. Who knows? I think it is great you have P&G approval. We cannot have too many fan clubs/activities/people who work for the show. I think you will have fun with it. Keep us posted as to what you have going on. We need to keep the GL fires burning!
