This year we will be raffling off 3 C.J.O.W. commemoratives (Mark Lauckner made EC&M"s) and handing out free copies of C.J.O.W. mags.Both very generously donated by Howard & Linda Banks. We had a very successful show last year with some new as well all the usual members. Hope to see lots of both again this year. This fantastic setting and added attractions (raffles & mags) should help to lure more people to come out for a great week-end. We will also be advertising at the antique/collectable shops around the area. The flea market on Sunday should prove to be interesting as well for those who can stay around.

Sorry folks, I should have added this earlier. The very bad news is that our good friend and fellow collector, Ray, has lost his long battle with cancer. The very good news is that the show will go on. Eva says that Ray would have wanted it to happen so it will, as a sort of tribute to Ray. Really hope lots of us can make it a show to remember.

Dennis and I will be there! Looking forward to another weekend of swapping more than insulators ... stories and yarns and memories of Ray.
Cheers,
Lena

Any other interested parties? This will be a very good insulator show & yard sale combined. Something for everyone.
