A Christmas to Remember

By David MacDonald, MUFON Executive Director

Being an old dog, I have a lot of Christmases to remember. The anticipation alone was

enough to keep you on your best behavior for at least a while before the big day. The

lights, the smells, seasonal music, the shopping, OOOPS!

Did I just say shopping?

Yep, that’s right: In just a few weeks, it will be upon us. And if you’re like most of us, you

dread trying to find just the right gift for special people. Well, we may have a solution. Just

visit the MUFON store. We have items of every price range and taste. At least for Mufonians!

Take, for example, our Port Authority Jacket for both men and women. It’s attractive, travels

well, and is quite warm. Despite its light weight, if worn over a sweater, it is good for all but

the harshest winter weather. The MUFON “Go Bag” is a big hit as well. It’s a large, durable

flight bag, emblazoned with the MUFON logo, suitable for field investigations or general

travel. We have ladies’ vintage T-shirts with the MUFON logo made of Swarovski crystal.

(These are always HOT!) Additionally, we have a wide selection of hats and visors. Finally,

don’t forget the enormous selection of books we have in the bookstore.

Additionally, we have a delightful selection of out-of-this-world decorations. Do not forget

that if you want to order over the telephone, we will be most happy to work with you.

See there! We just made your shopping dilemma a little less stressful.

Also, as we gather with loved ones during this season of lights, I want to extend my heartfelt

gratitude to each of you for your dedication, curiosity, and passion for the unknown.

May this holiday season bring peace to your homes, joy to your hearts and inspiration to

your minds. As we look to the skies in the coming year, let us carry forward the same spirit of

awe and openness that Christmas instills in us all.

On behalf of MUFON leadership, I wish you and your families a Merry Christmas and a New

Year filled with discovery, connection, and wonder.

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good flight!
