Possible Arbon Post Office Closing

Possible Arbon Post Office Closing – How You Can Help!

Dear Arbon residents,

The Arbon Post Office is on the list of several rural post offices in the state in danger of closing. Please write a letter to “To Whom it may Concern” about how this closure would affect you, your family, and your business. You could include the distance you are from town, the dangers of traveling in the winter, the essential mail you get (SS, medications, etc), and so forth.- any way that the post office closure will affect you.

These letters need to be delivered to the Arbon Post Office by Friday, August 26th, where they will be collected. Our voices are few and far between in Arbon, and without your voice and input, we could lose our post office for sure!

Please write, right now.  Time is of the essence!
