2005 ICC Coin Show Finds Chairmen
Coz Raimondi and Mark Eberhardt volunteered to co-chair the ICC 2005 coin show.

2004 ICC December Banquet
It’s official! Our banquet this year will be held at HomeTown Buffet in Southern Plaza. The time anddate are 6:00pm on Monday, December 6th . I told them that we would have 30 people in attendance. If
we have 30 people, we are guaranteed to have the whole room to ourselves. If we have less than 30 wemay have to share. Hopefully no one else tries to reserve the room too. I will know more in the nextfew months.
I need to figure out what kind of program we should have at the banquet. In the past few years we have
had entertainers (magician, harpist, etc.) and speakers (Jay Kline, etc.). If anyone has any ideas, pleasetell me at the meeting. I will have to talk to HomeTown Buffet to see what kind of entertainment orspeakers they allow, if they allow them.
