Don't
Miss the
May 8-9, 2021 Meeting and Annual OGCA Display Show
The March meeting was fantastic, and
we are grateful for an incredible 240 new applicants,
558 guests and a sold-out show!
We appreciate your ongoing compliance with Covid-19
regulations necessary for us to continue holding our
meetings.
Members: join us on May 8th & 9th for the
event we look forward to all year. The “May Show”
includes the nationally recognized Annual OGCA Display
Show along with hundreds of trade tables. Besides great
buying and selling opportunities, you will see unique
and interesting display-only exhibits. Be sure to
vote for your favorite display on Saturday. In
addition to the “Member’s Choice” award are cash prizes,
beautiful plaques and four Minuteman Freedom bronzes.
The Display Show is one of the most educational events
to bring your family and friends, so consider bringing
"mom" on Mother's Day, Sunday, May 9th. Plus meet the
members who “wrote the book” in the “Authors Corner”
against the wall in the center of the hall and
throughout the hall as posted.
Tables sold out fast for May and we have a waiting list.
Guest Pass forms are on
pages 11-14 of your last (Spring ‘21) newsletter. If you
need copies simply email ogca@ogca.com
or call (330) 467-5733. Guest pass forms are also
available to members on-site.
We must skip the May banquet this year due to Covid-19
spacing issues, but we are planning a heck of a shindig
for 2022. Next year’s Annual Display Show and Banquet is
April 30-May 1, 2022.
The Holiday Inn at The Roberts Centre is requesting us
to spread the word that advance notice of hotel
cancellations are appreciated (especially since they are
trying to do room renovations). Please be
considerate of all of our hotel partners and provide as
much advance notice as you can.
