16^th Summer FUN Convention will start in

Count Down to the Next FUN Show

The FUN board had their meeting in late February to work out the details for the 16th Annual Summer FUN show. To start with the Board has set 9:45 am as the start time for the opening ceremonies, we expect all the talking to be completed by 10:00. In the future the bourse floor will open exactly at 10:00. We will have a lot of freebie give aways during Summer FUN. Orange County Covid Protocols will need to be followed in July although we do not know what they will be as of the end of February.

We have extended special invitations to attend Summer FUN to the U.S. Mint, the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, and the Piedmont Gold Panners. Sam Gelberd is invited to work the Coin & Kids booth. The ANA is also scheduled to host a grading seminar. If you would like to attend this two day seminar follow the link below in the What's New at FUN Section and sign up before the May 28 deadline.

If you would like to give a presentation during Summer FUN, get in contact with Randy Campbell. He still has one more vacancy to fill.

We will also have our non-competitive exhibits available for viewing. If you want to display your coins you can get with Bob Russell. His Deadline is the First of June.

FUN will be providing a shuttle bus from the West Concourse parking lot to Hall WE1. If the West Concourse parking lot gets full the Orange County Convention Center will provide a free shuttle from the off site parking lot to our convention hall. Parking fees for the FUN Show is $10.00. Make sure you tell the parking attendant you are with the FUN show to get your discounted rate. Florida Coin Clubs if you would like FUN to subsidize your club bus, up to $1,000 get your application to the bourse chairperson before the first day of June.
