Club Members! Mark Your Calendars!

The Fisher-Price Collectors Club is meeting on a NEW weekend this summer!

July 24th, 2010

Attention Club Members, we got a plan! Our 2010 Annual Summer Convention is set for a new weekend - July 24, 2010. We are going to have our Annual Collectible Toy Show and Sale, plus a dinner later that evening. The new date was chosen because there are events that weekend in East Aurora that will bring people to town. The traditional weekend we always had (the last weekend in August) used to coincide with Toyfest. But with no Toyfest, East Aurora is pretty quiet during the end of August, making a toy sale very difficult. But we are hoping that using this new weekend in the summer will help bring in the foot traffic we need to make the sale a success!

When is the Sale?

The Sale is on Saturday July 24th at the Immanuel Lutheran Church, at 43 Pine Street, East Aurora NY. It is behind Vidler's 5 & 10 Store on Main Street. For those who came, this is the same church where the Toyfest Toy sale was held in 2007. The sale is roughly from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm, though we will probably start packing up towards the end. Many club members will be selling some of their supply of awesome collectible Fisher-Price toys.

When is the dinner?

Like the last few years, we will be eating at the Village Kitchen Cafe, located right behind Main Street at 40 Riley Street. Dinner will be served at 6:30, and we will have the annual raffle and give out the Caring and Sharing Award. This year, the raffle prize are some Fisher-Price ornaments made over the last couple years. Reservations are required; every club member should receive your reservation form in the mail (by end of June) - send it back to Jacquie by July 15th so we know how much food to order! We may be having a speaker this year - still working on that one!

Jacquie mailed out the information packet/reservations around the end of June. Included also are the raffle tickets and club membership dues for next year. It will be interesting to see how well this new weekend works for the Toy Sale! Hope you club members can make it to this year's annual convention!
