2011 SWLCC TACKLE SHOW & SWAP

Dave, what does the dues and show money go towards if no one is profiting? It doesn't seem to say on the home page.

[Dave Dennison]

The club is a registered non-profit and all the money goes into the club general account. These moneys are used to pay for the research and articles written on the website, it also helps pay for the website yearly fees and club operating costs, Our show we host once a year is also paid for with the money. Also advertising we pay for such as flyers for other shows.

We have many members now, All who donate time to promote the hobby. Its a great club that was formed to promote vintage and contemporary lure collecting and to preserve as much history as we can.

We have elected officials within the club. Its basically set up like many clubs. Nobody profits from it.

Great club. Great site. I've been a member since inception. Our Library is second to none when it comes to historic information about the sport we love.
Last years show was incredible with the largest selection of SaltWater baits, buttons, memorabilia, trophy's, you name it. I have never seen so many old lure before or since
It featured auctions of special lures donated by guys like steve musso, chumbucket & gary soldati, plus many old surf fishing pictures.
Having this years show at the Big Ditch is a thrill for me, because it's one of the great surf fishing locations in the country. It's also 'plug central' for old New England Baits.
I hope that all attending will bring their old lures and let the 'experts' tell them what they are or what they are worth.
You'll find that everyone is very friendly and some very knowledgable guys set up tables.
This years show should be even better; because we moved from New Hampshire to Cape Cod with all its SurfFishing History.
I hope to see you all there. Stop by my table & say hello.
All the Best, Bob
