Christmas Holiday Show
OUR 2006, 13th. ANNUAL, HOLIDAY SHOW WAS OUR LAST CLUB SHOW AT THIS LOCATION !
PLEASE VISIT OUR MAY MOTHERS DAY WEEKEND SHOW AT THE COBB CIVIC CENTER
12/10/2007 As we all know, GMS did not put on the December Show this year. In its place, Richard Hightower took over the show and date and promoted The North Atlanta Christmas Show. It looks like Richard did a good job and had a successful show and hope that future shows are even better! Richard gave GMS space to promote the club, talk about rocks, minerals and fossils, and to solicite new members. We had two tables, one with information on GMS, May Show fliers, stickers, coloring books, old Tips and Trips, and membership applications. On the second table, I set up my faceting display and faceting machine. Richard also gave us gemstone and mineral cards to give to the new members who signed up at the show. We signed up 25 new members, handed out over 150 Tri-folds with the GMS information and gave away many stickers and coloring books Richard deserves a big thanks from GMS for allowing us to take part in the show. GMS also thanks all the members who took time from their shopping to staff the table during the show. Next to our space was the new meteorite club. Several of our GMS members are founding members of this group. They had two tables also and were giving away free meteorites. If you haven’t noticed, they are as nuts about meteorites as we are about rocks, minerals and fossils. They also drew a big crowd, gave out much information, and were able to solicite new members. It was good seeing some of the dealers who have come to our December shows for many years. We missed some who did not make it. We also enjoyed meeting new dealers that Richard brought in to the show. Richard had his cave bear along with other fancy fossils on display. Richard also brought in the Rock Food table. If you missed the show, you missed some wonderful displays and merchandise. It was also nice to be able to go to the show without any responsibilities. AS soon as we were packed up, we could leave. The only thing that others and I missed was the Saturday Auction. I guess, we need Kim to find an excuse to have a workday at his house and have an auction after all the work it done. Jay Gorday |
