2020 Annual Show
At the Executive Board meeting on January 20, plans for our 2020 show were discussed. The Board overwhelming approved both a change in date and a change in venue. Our show will be held on September 12 & 13, 2020 at the Cradle of Aviation museum in Garden City, just down the road from the Nassau Coliseum. We are excited to be taking the show there as there will be much more space for our exhibits and larger crowds expected based on the Museum’s popularity. See: https://www.cradleofaviation.org/
I wish to encourage all club members to think about a project (or projects) to make and exhibit in this year’s show. Additionally, since we are new there and we really want to establish a presence, think about bringing past projects as well. The only restriction is that they have not been exhibited at the 2019 show.
Important – While the show provides an opportunity to exhibit our work, it also is a great benefit to the club in another way. The Gift Store (Gallery), Used Tool Sales (Garage Sale), sale of projects from the floor and the rental of vendor spaces are all sources of income for the club. This important revenue stream goes toward procuring outside speakers and equipment for the club as well as keeping down the potential for dues increases. Please help in any way you can to preserve the quality of our “prom”.
Obviously, we are just getting started with the plans for this year’s show but please contact me with any questions and/or comments you may have.

Bill, Bethpage seemed to be having $ issues. No tram this year and the locking of the gates were a problem for people and I’m sure it would be worse next year… The board apparently thought this out very well so it sounds good to me…Thanks to all of you for the hard work..

Definitely put a lot of thought into it, and heard what people had to say. I went to my first board meeting last week, and I was impressed with the level of organization and seriousness with which issues were considered.
