The Valentine Re-Mailing Program
Loveland is perhaps best known nationwide as the home of the Valentine Re-Mailing Program. Every year, hundreds of thousands of Valentines are packaged inside larger envelopes and sent to Loveland, where volunteers hand-stamp them with a Valentine's verse and send them on to the intended recipients. Each year a contest is held through the local newspaper, the Reporter Herald, for residents to submit their verses.
Leading up to Valentine's Day, the city authorizes the placement of red hearts with sponsored personal messages on light poles and other fixtures of the downtown streets.

Alternatives to the Official Loveland Card / Remailer Program
As an alternative to the Official Loveland Valentine's Card, and the Loveland USPS Remailer program, you can opt to:
Why not just use the existing Remailing system?
- A card purchased from this site will get the same Loveland Post Office Cancellation as an "Official" Loveland card, or a card you send for remailing.
- Cards purchased from us can be bought RIGHT UP TO the deadline date.
- We have FREE E-Cards, with more choice than the Loveland Official Card
- Our paid card service is convenient, involves no stamps, no trips to the post office or mail box and offers you a choice of local scenes to choose as a card
- We offer locally sources or manufactured gifts as well as our cards
- Local Merchants benefit from this site - all products carried on this site are provided by, serviced by or manufactured by LOCAL merchants.
- The USPS has enough money?!? - Seriously, the remailing is a great program, run by volunteers, but the only people who benefit financially is the USPS - you buy two postage stamps and two envelopes to send ONE card to your loved one!
We recommend either purchasing a WithLoveFromLoveLand.com Valentine's Day Card, or an Official Lovelend Valentine's Day Card.
