My Idea in making my own local coin club for teens and adults
Hi, I"m Jackson, I'm 15 and am active in this hobby. I joined the ANA to become more connected to fellow collectors like me. But I'm more than a half hour away from a local coin club unfortunately. So I've decided to try to make my own! I made a Facebook page called Bowling Green, Ohio coin group. I plan on setting up a flyer in my local library too. I may even try to write something for my High School newspaper. I want this group to be teens and adults. I want it to be friendly and enjoyable to do. I want it to be a place where collectors in my town can talk, share, and trade coins! I want to meet every once in awhile at our local library if the group ever grows. I'm super excited about it and I hope if anyone reads this that is in the Bowling Green, Ohio area will join! Thank You fpr reading!

Jackson, if you really can’t find anybody, try visiting you local coin dealership once and a while to see if you run into any other YNs.

Great idea. Your area must have others to join. You only need two people to get started. Try to follow some guidelines on meetings.

Good idea. I wish you luck. I already belong to a coin club half way across the country. I am having a great time with the zoom meetings.

Way to go! My coin club currently meets through ZOOM. ZOOM is an excellent platform to meet in the age of COVID. You may also draw people from across the country!

I have yet to attend my first coin club meeting due to Covid restrictions at our meeting venue. My friend, Mark who owns a local coin shop is the President and has invited me to join once the venue is approved again. Thanks for posting and good luck with your endeavor !
