Bottle Show Exhibits - Howard Dean’s Milk Glass exhibit won Best of Show at our May Show and Dan Weed’s exhibit; “Diving for Bottles” won the Most Educational award.  CONGRATULATIONS HOWARD, CONNOR AND DAN WEEDEN!  Also a thank you to Tom Andriach, Jim Bender, Chris Davis and Rick Weaver for the excellent exhibits they did for our show.
Peter Zacek Bottles - Our club owns 23 bottles that were given to our club by Peter Zacek’s family.  They were from Pete’s collection and all of them except maybe one were dug by Pete.  They are all nice bottles.  A club member at the picnic suggested that the club should auction off the bottles.  The bottles plus other items dug by Pete were on display at the Oneida County Historical Society for almost a year and then for two months at the Dunham Library this year.  The exhibits by our club of Pete’s bottles served as a gracious honor to his memory.  The idea of auctioning them off to club members can be discussed at our July meeting.
