The Ruger Collectors Association (RCA) will once again be hosting our Annual Spring Display show in Harrisburg, PA on March 23-24, 2013.
This year, I will NOT be sending hard copy information packets but will email them to those who have attended in the past. If you would like to receive a packet, please PM me with your email address and I will get it out to you. All you need to do is print out the registration page, fill it out, and mail it to me with your check.
The show will be held at the Pennsylvania State Farm Show Complex in Harrisburg, PA. Set-up is on Friday, March 22nd from 4PM until 7PM. The show is on Saturday, March 23th and Sunday, March 24th.
The information packet I will send out includes all of the details about the show, table reservations, banquet information and hotel info.
I have once again secured a block of room at the Courtyard by Marriott at a discounted rate of $99.00. There are 20 rooms being reserved (4 singles and 16 doubles) until February 23rd, at which time any unbooked rooms will be released. If you are interested, and beginning on Tuesday, Feb 5th, please call the hotel directly, at 717-558-8544, and tell them you are with the Ruger Collectors in order to obtain the discounted rate.
Once again, we will be holding a fund raising auction after the banquet on Saturday night. 100% of the profits will go to the Harrisburg Display Show fund to help run the display shows, fund trophies, improve the recruitment tables, get member badges, table covers, raffles, prizes, etc. Recent prizes for displayers have included a few firearms (SR-22, 41 mag Flat-top, 77/17, 10/22, etc...) and we would like to be able to continue to encourage, and reward, displayers.
Rules are simple. Opening bid on all items, except firearms, is $5. Firearms will have a reasonable opening bid to be determined based on the gun. No reserves, no absentee bidding, no phone bids, you have to be present to bid. Payment due at the end of the auction, cash or check. Winning bidders take their item home with them, except for firearms, which will need to be shipped to an FFL.
I would like to take the opportunity to solicit you for donations for the March Harrisburg auction. Please let me know by PM or email (in my profile) if there is anything that you would like to donate. No item is too small. We simply ask that you ship the item to me (or my FFL if a gun) so that we can have it in hand, document it in the master auction list, and catalog it for the auction. We will have a list of items available for people at the show. We will then bring all items with me to the show and set up the auction before dinner. We will have our banquet on Saturday night allowing everyone to inspect all of the items and then have our auction after dinner.
Thanks in advance for helping to continue to improve our great hobby! I look forward to seeing some of you again, and meeting some of you for the first time!
See you in Harrisburg!!
