BTW, the show is at the Elks Lodge #1068, 375 Union Ave. (Route 28) in Bridgewater, NJ 08807.

Free to the general public from 9AM-3PM. 35 tables. VERY solid bourse this year with varied stocks being offered. They have pretty decent food there as well.

It is one mile west of the Interstate 287 and Route 28 intersection.

How was the show?

Although the show was on Palm Sunday, I do not think that it was that big of a deal with regards to attendance. The nice, 70-degree day had a bit more to do with that.

Despite that, the show ran smoother than an android's bottom from start to finish. The 240 people that attended spent money. The dealer-to-dealer business at the show was extremely brisk. The club members made my job incredibly easier, and the Elks Lodge outdid themselves by having the hall set up 15-20 minutes earlier than expected and to perfection after having their largest Elks-related function that Saturday evening - which did not end until after 1AM Sunday morning.

I think the dynamics of dealers and inventory offerings was about as vast as we have ever had: High-end, low-end, foreign, US, paper money, tokens, medals, bullion, etc. Even the better, the club made a solid profit from the show as we altered out budget while improving dealer quality and customer service.

It did get to be quite dead after 12:30, but the people who were still on the floor were busy.

It was the most pleasurable show that I have attended as a part of this club. I only missed one in 1995 when Lisa and I went to the EAC Convention.
