    Hi, I was just wondering how many of you out there belong to your local, state coin clubs or the ANA. I join every club who's coin shows I go to. These clubs sometimes spend more on a show then what they take in for table fees. It is just my way to say THANK YOU for another coin show. P.S. Are there any out there going to the Central States Show? Might be nice if the Coin Forum members going there could get together at the show. Just a idea.

    I belong to ANA, ANS, ONS, ACCG, local ancient club, and maybe a couple of others. Clubs really are great ways to stay attached to your hobby and help lend support to those who are collectors voices in Washington. Plus, access to their resources and publications can be invaluable. At the very least I would think most collectors here should belong to the ANA. They have had their troubles, but those people are gone and its in good shape now.

    P.S. Not planning on Central States, but I am planning on going to CICF if anyone else will be there. I think I will post on the World coins forum when it gets closer.

    As to the Central States question, I will probably attend Central States, and I will attend CICF. Not sure yet about ANA. (Three major shows in Chicago is a lot for me.)

    I belong to ANA, I've been meaning to sign up for my local club forever. I attend all their coin shows.

    Maybe I'll get around to it after I clean out the garage.:D

    My area club is a 90 minute drive in good weather. It also meets on a night that I have committed to Eastern Star and Masonic related activities. So I am currently not part of a local club. The president of our local club happens to be a longtime friend. I am a member of ANA.

    I am a member of ANA and NOW (Numismatists of Wisconsin). I am not an active member other than attending NOW shows. Our local coin club does not hold regular meetings, and has just one show annually, so I'm not excited about joining.
