What does this mean?  

Physical gift card orders are due on Nov 10 and Dec 10.  For these 2 months (during holiday shopping season), BBLZ will cover the shipping and handling.  These physical gift cards will be distributed at the corresponding BBLZ meeting during those month, or you can email giftcard@lakezurichbandboosters.com to set up a pick-up day/time/location. 

For the other 10 months of year, you can still order your own physical gift cards, but shipping and handling charges will apply.
