 Coin clubs are great for so many reasons.

"Brick and Mortar" coin clubs are a dying breed. You and your kid are lucky to have one. Congratulations!

I've got four kiddos, so I imagine their collections will grow substantially from becoming involved with this club. They appear like a wonderful group of folks. In case any of you are in the Willamette Valley in Oregon: http://oregoncoinclubs.org/clubs/salem.html

I always think of JBuck now when I see any Ikes. :) Nice to have a coin club! I could imagine there being some here in middle Illinois, just wouldn't have the time for one at the moment.

Even Eisenhower is doing a chin strap. What's up with that?

More than 50 years had elapsed before I joined the ANS. (Australian Numismatic Society), the near equivalent of the ANA. As a kid, I never had much to spend on coins. As a teenager, I bought my first gold coin, but girls were more important. As a family man, the family always came first. As a widower, I now have the time, so I joined the ANS.

Coin clubs are a great way to make new friends with whom you share a common interest. Some of my best friends are those that I met at a coin club.
They're also a great place for me to learn about areas of the hobby that I don't actively collect. How? Through the educational programs presented, through show-and-tell among the members and just listening to other collectors casually talk about what interests them.
I'm currently a member of four different clubs and always enjoy my time at the meetings.
