Here's a copy....of the one PC sends to hosts if they have their email addresses. I was a host in September and then signed in October and I just received this last week. Maybe you could modify it yourself?
Hope it helps.

One suggestion I heard was to buy one of those "Page-a-Day" calendars. Find the date from last year that the host's show was on and send that particular day's page to her with a little note like
"It's that time again. I'd hate to see you lose your 10% discount."
This is just something inexpensive and a little different so maybe it will stick in their minds. Of course, always follow up with a phone call after mailing anything.
