And another successful show in the books! A huge thank you to all our volunteers who helped set up the show on Wednesday and helped break everything down today! Another massive thanks to all the volunteers who manned our front table greeting show attendees, answering questions, and selling raffle tickets! Can't forget another huge Thank You to our club board members for all their hard work in planning, promoting, and executing to make this a successful show. A special word of gratitude to our Show Chair Barbara Bobbitt!
As for our raffle, this was our most successful yet (it was a sell out!), due in large part to the efforts of our Vice President Adam Lemons! All the winners have been drawn and notified. We especially want to thank all our wonderful and generous partners who sponsored this year's prizes: A-Coin and Stamp Gallery, Miriam's Jewelry, Edgewood Coin, first_coast_coin, TheLug, and Repete's. A huge Thank You from the Greater Jacksonville Coin Club to all of you!
We also had some amazing food trucks for all three days of the show. Thank you to Compass Eatery LLC, Backwood Meat Smokerz L.L.C, and El Mariachi Loko Jax! Y'all were amazing! I got rave reviews for each of you and a lot of folks asked me to get you back out for our next show!
Everyone please go out and support your local businesses! They are vital to us enjoying thriving, vibrant communities around Jacksonville! If you enjoyed the show, our next one will be May 28th, 29th, and 30th 2026 at The Ramallah American Club. We are continuously working to improve our shows; hopefully we'll have some new and exciting ideas to roll out in the Spring! If you can't wait until May for your next coin "fix", our club meetings are monthly on the second Monday at Elks Lodge #221 on West Rd, doors open at 5:30pm for buying and selling with a business meeting and educational presentation from 7pm to 8pm. Hope to see you there!
