[QUOTE="TheNoost, post: 1488689, member: 14473"]Our regular meeting are smallish. We have a formal meeting with giveaways, usually a raffle or 2 (sometimes gold!) and some lower value items for auction once a month. Last time there was a presentation on a farm machinery company and the tokens/medals given out for being the best in certain areas. There are complimentary cookies and beverages at formal meetings as well. Non-formal meetings every week at a local restaurant are fun too. Jam a bunch of tables together and everyone sections off to their main interests. Everyone is close enough together that cross conversations happen as well. The summer picnic and winter party are the best. Everyone gets a door prize. Gold raffle. Not much else happens with coins at these two events, just coin people and their families hanging out. Up until last year, every member got a silver eagle at the winter party. Members now get a slightly less valuable coin. Once they get to know a person, other collectors will let ya know if they have or see something that fits your interests and will bring it to the meetings. Totally worth the $10 yearly dues[/QUOTE]
