SEP 2
The next Arlington meeting for 2026 will be held on Wednesday, September2, at our new meeting place (see below). NOTE: Our meeting room has changed to Room 208 upstairs. This room is to the left of our previous room and is slightly larger (thanks to Ken A. for arranging this).
The program will be our semi-annual auction. We have about 70 lots. Also, if you intend to bid, reserve a paddle number when you sign the registration sheet.
APS Books will be available at the meeting, courtesy of Dave Stockbridge. Club books will also be available.
NOTE: Granbury Auction, September 22 - Dave Stockbridge provides the following guidance: Auction items need to be provided to me by September 2nd so I can prepare a listing of sale items. The listing will be distributed to all club members and posted for others. Your attendance is welcome. However, I accept absentee bidding prior to the auction date by email or phone. Items submitted for sale should be of moderate value, with a minimum bid of at least $1. All bidding will be done in whole dollar increments. Submissions are limited to no more than 5 items per member. Please let me know if you will be submitting items to aid me in planning the auction."
Election of Officers: If anyone would like to serve as an officer in the club, this is your chance to participate. President, Vice President (one for each chapter), Secretary, Treasurer, and Board of Directors (3) are all positions that need to be filled. You can let any of the current officers or board members know of your interest. Keep in mind, the club doesn’t exist without leadership and direction.
Library Club library items are available for checkout. View the list of MCSC Library Items. See Skip or Rick if interested in checking out an item or two.
Mystic catalogs are needed for the Beginners table at Expo. Skip Ely advises that they make excellent instructional guides for beginning collectors.
