Congratulations!

160m cards (along with deleted entities) may be checked at conventions
when the appropriate ARRL personnel are in attendance. Friedrichshafen
in June offers this service, as does the RSGB 2009 Convention (formerly
known as the HF Convention) on 9-11 October. There are others, too
(Italy, for example). If you're going to attend one of these
conventions, then take your cards there and you don't have to worry
about sending cards to Newington.
