Dear Friends and Members of the Parker Gun Collector's Association,

The 2021 PGCA Silent Auction will be held at our Annual Meeting and Banquet on Friday, June 4th which is detailed on this PGCA Forum. Due to the support from both PGCA Members and businesses that specialize in sporting-related products, the Silent Auction has been extremely successful in generating much needed revenue to help defray the ever-increasing costs of operating this fine organization.

The items to be donated need not be new; just something you think might be of interest to your fellow PGCA members. In the past, some of the best items were handmade by our talented members. Please look around at your accumulation of shooting and sporting equipment for potential items.

In past years, PGCA member businesses have donated terrific hunting trips to various parts of the country for pheasants, grouse, woodcock, turkeys, hogs, alligators, and so on. Other businesses have contributed some of the finest clothing, shoes, luggage, cases, knives, books, subscriptions, you name it - someone has probably contributed something similar for the Silent Auction. Members have even contributed items from their personal collections.

Each and every item donated will need to be evaluated, cataloged and shipped to the auction team. Items may also be delivered to the Southern and/or Northeast Classic Side x Side events. Please contact me as soon as possible to ensure it is included in the auction and i can coordinate shipping if necessary.

The auction is a benefit to our entire membership and we thank you for your continued support.

Hoping to hear from many of you soon. I am targeting to have the auction plan finalized by May 25th.

Is this annual meeting restricted to PGCA members only? Just curious.

The meeting and banquet are open to all, great question and a miss on my part to extend the invitation.

Is this annual meeting restricted to PGCA members only? Just curious.

This question has been asked for as long as I can remember. It simply has not been logistically possible with the resources currently in the posession of the PGCA.

In the past, PGCA members have brought friends or family who are not members to the event.

DO You Have To Be A Parker Member?

So, according to what you just said, anybody, including '' NON
PARKER MEMBERS '' can Attend!

Harry



Sure, why not?

A few shots of the silent auction table. Thanks to all those who donated and also to those who reached into their pockets and purchased items. A special thank you to Morris Baker of RST who once again donated graciously as you will see in the pics. Two flats each of .410. 28, and 20 gauge. Great job by Brian and Cindy in organizing the auction. Lots of work goes into that event.

Yes, the behind-the-scenes work that goes into the silent is tremendous for only two people. In the past it took four, sometimes more.
