<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Rushmore, post: 25917916, member: 17011&quot;]I&#039;m the secretary/treasurer of my local coin club.&nbsp; We meet in the local coin shop owned by the club president. </p><p><br /></p><p>We don&#039;t do auctions but we have a door prize and an attendance prize at every meeting.&nbsp; Door prize is usually a Silver Eagle or equivalent.&nbsp; It is a drawing for meeting attendees.&nbsp; Attendance prize is a cash drawing.&nbsp; If the name drawn isn&#039;t there then the pot goes up $5 for the next month maxes out at $50.&nbsp; If someone wins it goes down to 20 for the next month.</p><p><br /></p><p>We have a business meeting where I give the secretary and treasurers report.&nbsp; We discuss things like the annual coin show we put on every year.&nbsp; Then we have the education portion of the meeting which is usually numismatic or hobby related.&nbsp; Sometimes it&#039;s not. Like if I had traveled recently I&#039;ll give a presentation on it.&nbsp; I&#039;ve done presentations&nbsp; on Hawaii, Greece and Scandinavia.&nbsp; One club member who has passed away was a conspiracy theorist once gave presentation on conspiracy theories from the 2020 election to why the Oklahoma City bombing was an inside job by the federal government.&nbsp; Personally I felt that a coin club meeting wasn&#039;t the proper venue for that but him and the coin club president were such good friends that the club president even gave the eulogy at his funeral.&nbsp; OTOH the conspiracy theorist did give nice presentations on baseball cards and even brought some valuable cards such as Mickey Mantle and Nolan Ryan to show.</p><p><br /></p><p>At the end of the meeting we have pizza and pop.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
