COINS ARE FINISHED AND ON THEIR WAY TO JO RIEFER. SHE SHOULD BE MAILING THEM OUT TO THOSE WHO HAVE PRE-PAID BY THE END OF NEXT WEEK.

SOME THOUGHTS THAT ARE ONLY MINE......... JO, ESPECALLY JO AND I HAVE SPENT COUNTLESS HOURS AS VOLINTEERS RUNNING THE CLUB COIN CONTEST AND THIS IS NOT A HORN TOOTING COMMIT. THIS IS THE ONE AND ONLY FUND RAISING EVENT THE CLUB HOLDS EVERY YEAR AND WE HAD A GREAT TURN OUT OF ARTIST AND ALSO OF VOTERS BUT TO DATE A DARN POOR SUPPORT FROM THE OVER 400 CLUB MEMBERS. 400 MEMBERS, 250 COINS AND 60 SOLD, PRETTY PATHETIC I WOULD SAY. IF WE CAN'T SELL AT LEAST 225 OF THE NEW COINS THERE WILL BE NO CONTEST NEXT YEAR THAT’S A SURE THING. I KNOW WE'RE IN A TIGHT ECONOMY BUT THIS IS TO SUPPORT YOUR CLUB AND DON'T FORGET IT IS A .999 PURE SILVER COIN. ENOUGH SAID !

JO AND I HAVE GREAT PLANS FOR NEXT YEARS CONTEST, A NEW LOGO SIDE DRAWING CONTEST.

AS SOON AS JO GETS THE NEW COINS SHE WILL POST A PICTURE OF IT HERE ON THE BB.
