These are the photos from our 15th Annual Bottle Show held on Sunday, February 7, 2010 at the Knights of Columbus Hall, 88 Jackson Street, South River, NJ. Luckily we set the hall up on Tuesday night as part of our regular Winter meeting and that was good thing because we came up 9 tables short! Nine of the hall tables had broken legs and we needed to get them wire welded in a hurry since thet were already paid for. Add to that about a foot of snow on Saturday the day before the show and things start getting interesting. Fortunately when Saturday night arrived we just had to put the finishing touches on the set-up. Bacause of the snow we lost a few dealers, mostly to our South where showfall accumulations were up to 2 feet. Our paid attendance at the door was 136, 90 shy of our 225 average. However, our losses were off set by the generosity of our club members. The club would like to thank John Lawrey and John Lowe for their donations. Special thanks are extended to Ellen Walker, Hubert Mertes and Mark Nonesteid for manning the attendance table and to the set-up and clean-up crews. Special thanks also go out to all our club members who helped make this show a success.
