One suggestion I would like to make regarding the silent auction at the Annual Meeting. How about naming the member that donated the item?? I don't think that has been done in the past, correct me if I am wrong. Craig

We used to do that and then some contributors asked to remain anonymous so we stopped doing it. There's no problem in naming the contributors going forward but those wishing to remain anonymous need to state that when they send their items in to us.

Craig,
That's an easy one ever since Deb created the data base we run the auction with. I can give you every item donated for the last several years along with who donated it, the starting bid and final price. We also post a list of names both on this site and in Parker Pages of the individuals and companies who donated. Also, on the bid cards at the auction you will see the items description, retail value, who donated the item, and the minimum starting bid.

Now that the Annual meeting date and site has been announced we will be soliciting donations soon both on this site and from the many businesses that support our organization. Our goal every year is to exceed the previous year and thanks to our members we have had a pretty good run.

Yeah... what Larry said...

You realize you’ve got a pretty decent drive from Philly to Scranton .

What evening is the meeting/banquet ? I didn’t see the actual date time etc anywhere in this thread ?

Craig:

My copy of PARKER PAGES Spring 2019, page 6, says that The PGCA 2019 Annual Meeting will be held on September 21st, 2019, which is a Saturday night.

Guys,

I don't want to be a stick in the mud, but NY is not gun friendly, even our old kind. I made a reservation for Candlewood and was told twice during the process that firearms are not permitted on the premises. As a result I'll be staying in PA.

Not trying to create a panic or crapstorm, but if we register with an event discount code it's easy picking. Perhaps everyone will be happy leaving things at Hausmanns. Just food for thought.

For years and years we have stayed at the Quality Inn & Suites in Vestal and have never had an issue with bringing our guns from our vehicles to our rooms and vice-versa.

And they are pet friendly too.

That sounds much better. Maybe I'll bring Rocky.
