livingbygrace 368 Posted April 1 Interesting when I find out new pools that I did not know existed before. Is this a pool anyone can join at any time? Or did it start in 2023 and will keep going till the end with participants already signed up in the beginning Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's similar in that way to the Oldest Living State Leaders Pool, which I partake in despite its creation years before I was even aware of this site. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
