Waukesha Coin Club
Newsletter VOL.XLVII Oct 2015 #10 www.waukeshacoinclub.com
Our September meeting included a guest from the Boy Scouts. He was visiting to see what a coin club meeting was like and preparing for the Oct 17th Coin Collecting Merit badge clinic. Dick updated us on the Boy Scout Merit Badge Clinic progress and asked for more volunteers and coin reference material. Cathy reported on her progress with setting up our Christmas Dinner at Tuscan Hall. Members shared coins and tokens throughout the evening. We expect more Boy Scouts (possibly 12) to attend our Oct 7 meeting. Boy Scout Clinic (flyer attached).
Our next regular meeting of the Waukesha Coin Club will be held at 7:00 P.M. on Wednesday, Oct 7th, at the Waukesha Salvation Army meeting room located at 445 Madison Street. The Salvation Army is located one block west of the corner of Highway 18 and Madison Street. Enter through the back door and take the elevator to the second floor.
