The annual Granbury auction will take place at the September 23 Granbury meeting. If you are unable to attend the auction you may submit bids to Dave Stockbridge before September 23. Provide Dave the “Item Number” and the “Maximum amount you are willing to pay” and he will bid for you. Dave will start the bidding at the minimum and bid until you get the item or the bid goes above your maximum. See the list of auction items a/o Sep 23. The meeting room will be open for viewing of auction lots beginning at 5:00pm. The auction will begin about 7:00pm.

Missing Scott Catalogs: We have located the Scott Catalog 3B, so now we just need to locate the 1B. If you have ever checked out a Scott catalog, look and see if you have inadvertently forgot about it. It is needed for the mail auction in October.

Mystic Catalogs make a great donation to the EXPO Beginner's Table. Skip Ely points out that they are very useful for instructional purposes. Let Skip know if you have any to donate.
