CHILDREN’S CLASS: If you have miniatures that you bought and now wonder why, or supplies that you thought you couldn’t live without and find that you can, would you consider donating these for our children’s classes? Just bring them to the show and ask for a tax receipt. There is no charge for these classes and we would like to keep it that way.

 SILENT & LIVE AUCTIONS: Habitat for Humanity receives all of the proceeds from the show and we are always looking for ways to increase their profit. If you have items that you would like to donate to the Silent Auction or the Live Auction we would be delighted to accept them. We do need to know about these before the show. Call me at 972-217-5005 or email me at danim@flash.net, or send a note with your registration. The Live Auction is scheduled for Saturday night at 7:00 p.m. in the Cambridge Room. Please ask for a receipt for your contribution.

MAGAZINES: Miniature Magazines are always in demand. If you are thinning your collection, please consider donating them to the show. We raised over $300 for Habitat last year with the collection from just one person. Please let me know that you are bringing them to the show.

EXHIBITS: Our exhibit space is somewhat limited in our hotel, but if you would like to exhibit anything, please call Jerry Lund at 972-250-6484 so we can fit it in.
