Welcome to:
“Other Hobbies Night”
SJCC would like welcome everyone to our Annual Program, “Other
Hobbies Night”! This is the night
to bring out all those hidden collections and wipe off the dust bunnies
and share what you collect with others instead of sharing regular
numismatic, exonumia treasures.
However, you don’t have to be left out if you only collect
numismatic treasures, you can still share those as well. No collectibles will be turned away
because we love them all! This is
the time were we get to see different kinds of things that people
collect, some we’ve never heard of or maybe thought of, but just wasn’t
sure how to get started.
Believe it or not, we have had people share; baked goods, rail
road ties, trains, hot wheels, match box cars, family genealogy, hand crafted paper
models, hats, comic books, dolls, figurines, t-shirts, colored glass,
Lego’s, marbles, sports memorabilia, hand drawings, spoon rests, candle
holders, pep pins, free stuff, books, toys, and home grown produce!
Remember the line about collecting is: “One persons junk is another
person’s treasure”!
So, if you are interested in some good talks on some interesting
items stop by and join us in seeing and learning about other peoples
hobbies and their stories about how and when they started
collecting. We will have an
Auction, Show and Tell, Great Refreshments and a Raffle Drawing at the
close of the evening’s events.
Take a look at the raffle prizes below and be sure to participate
as this is a great way to add to your collection. Hope to see everyone there!
Guests are welcome!
Especially
Youths!
