The primary idea is to provide a venue of interest for the Collector while not leaving the shooters out. What I'm saying is that we don't decide on a venue for our Annual Meeting based primarily on what it can offer the shooters. In 1993 the PGCA was founded as a 'Collectors organization' but renewed interest in shooting old doubles over the last few decades has brought many hundreds of new members on board and we are delighted to have them and learn from them as well as from our very savvy Collectors. Probably the best way to "please most of the people all of the time" is to provide a venue which might offer something for those on both ends of the spectrum.

Thats all good and fine so why not consider one of the places I mentioned and see if you could coordinate it with the Fox Collectors and LC Smith Collectors associations and bring all three together ?

I'm sure you could find enough so called "expert collectors" that would be willing to give seminars on their own area of expertiese . Hell I'd even be willing to come to the Homestead or Greenbrier as a guest speaker and tell some self proclaimed lies of my own LOL's !

And of course send invites to certain venders !

Maybe even make it a team challenge type thing etc etc .

I suppose my idea's versus those of others explains why I usually prefer to be a GDI

But then it's like I said in my earlier post , this is none of my buisness !
