<p>[QUOTE=&quot;borgovan, post: 430694, member: 13016&quot;]<b>starting a club</b></p><p><br /></p><p>The club I belong to (Northwest Detroit Coin Club - nwdcc.org) charges $10/year dues and raises the rest of its funds through the following means:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>* 50/50 drawing at each meeting.</p><p>* Raffling off 1-5 coins at each meeting</p><p>* Holding a twice-annual coin show and collecting revenue from dealer tables and concessions.</p><p>* Once-a-year auction where members donate various things, coin-related and not. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The basic set-up for each meeting is, if I remember correctly:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>* Tickets are sold for the coin raffle and 50/50 drawing. </p><p>* Members are allowed to sell coins. They put them up for viewing before the meeting starts. A bidding process then takes place later in the meeting for the coins people wish to bid on. </p><p>* Drawings take place for 50/50, coin raffles, and door prizes</p><p>*The board members (President, Treasurer, and Secretary) preside over the meeting and give reports. </p><p>*Someone, sometimes a club member, sometimes not, gives a presentation about a coin, group of coins, or coin-related event. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Meetings are typically in the 2 or 2 1/2 hour range, twice a month.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Hope this helps![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
