| Message from the Prez April 04 Please forgive me if you are getting this newsletter late. Things have been pretty hectic on my end since the 32nd Annual All Heisey Show and Sale. There were a few issues the dealers brought up for the next show, and we are working to address them. First off, thanks to all of our dealers, who brought more glass this year than I have seen in a long time. Attendance was down a bit from last year, but the people who came didn't seem to mind the Karate tournament going on next door, or the lack of parking in front of the community center. One lady who came to see her child at the tournament, ended up spending $2,000.00 in one of our booths. She had never even heard of Heisey Glass before that day! If you haven t already heard, Harold Willey passed away a week before the show. It was strange not seeing the Willey's or the Sparacio's at the show, and many of our customers were asking about them. Our thoughts are with you Mildred. Carl, get better so we can see you and Helen at next years show. Even though he blames me for running them out of the show, it will be sad not to see George and Eileen Schamel set up next year. Enjoy your retirement! The winner of this years door prize, a Crystolite Shell Candy Box and Cover, was Regina Driver of Port Republic, MD. Regina used to belong to the club a few years ago, and just reinstated at the show. Congratulations, and welcome back. Also, welcome to Mary Beth Cahill and Steve Champlin of Washington, DC, and Scott Heron of Rochester, NY, who joined our club at the show. We hold our meetings on the second Monday of the month from September through May, at the Potomac Public Library. I ll understand if Scott doesn't come by, but we would love to meet Mary Beth and Steve. John Martinez
