Approximately 175 members and guest were present at
our Sunday, November 14,
2004 meeting and mart. Our 50 mart tables
were almost full of sellers, but our 9 silent auction tables
were full. With Christmas that close , the occupancy of the mart tables
was disappointing, although sales were good.
President Frank Keillor conducted a short business
meeting , including election of Directors
and minor changes to
the Chapter's By-Laws.
Elected Directors were; Larry Muzinich, Robert Moore, John Stohr, Don
Day, Scott Seamans, and Richard Davis. 2005
Officers will be elected by the Directors. Treasurer Don Day
reported the Chapter is very solvent.
Our program
for the day was " Basic
Music Box Repair" presented by Member Don Day. Don remarked that
local repair seem to be a
dying profession and those still around were fully booked, however
repairs were still available on the East Coast. Don
presented slides on both cylinder and disk players, and
highlighted
basic repairs on each type.
As most present at the presentation were clock and watch types, we all
enjoyed something that was new to us.
