/24-7PressRelease/ - CAMPBELLSPORT, WI, June 26, 2008 - The 48th annual Eagle River Antique Show and Sale will be held at the Eagle River Derby Track Exposition Hall, located on Hwy 45 north of Eagle River Friday, August 1st, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM and Saturday, August 2nd, from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
This antique show is sponsored by the Rotary Club of Eagle River. All the proceeds from this show, which includes all attendance fees, are used by the Rotary Club for community projects. This show is the longest running antique show in the Northwoods and the ONLY show entirely benefiting a service club's community projects. The Rotary Club's main project this year is their DOWNTOWN BEAUTIFICATION & CLOCK PROJECT at the old railroad depot. In addition, yearly, the Club sponsors two $500 scholarships for seniors at Northland Pines HS and sends 2 girls annually to Badger Girls State. They also support the Northwood's Children's Museum, sponsor a "Warm the Children" winter project, and support an ongoing Rotary Youth Exchange Program.
The Rotary Club is an excellent example of a grass roots group that supports their local community and helps keep a little corner of our planet GREEN. In the spirit of preserving our planet, their sponsoring of an antique show and the antique show supporting their cause really makes a lot of good common sense. Buying antiques and collectibles is one of the best ways to foster your support both for a wonderful organization and helps to save our planet. Every antique you rescue, preserve and recycle is one less item that needs to be made new or will be imported. Buy antiques and GO GREEN in style! What could be a better way to recycle and keep your carbon footprint at a minimum?
Exhibitors for the show are professional antiques dealers (and recyclers) from the Northern Wisconsin Antique Dealers Association along with select guest dealers. The Rotary Club and NWADA are working once again in partnership to provide a unique and quality antiques show that has become a successful, anticipated summer event yearly! Many of the top antique dealers in the state of Wisconsin will be bringing quality antiques to this show that they have saved special just for this summer event.
An excellent selection of antique furniture in a wide variety of woods and styles will be available. You can also expect to find fine antique and vintage costume jewelry; sterling silver and silver plated flatware and serving pieces; brass and copper; pewter; Majolica; ironstone; Flow Blue; art pottery; elegant, depression & kitchen glassware; kitchen collectibles; decorative lodge-look items; sports items; decoys; art; children's toys & collectibles; vintage textiles; art glass; and small primitives at this exciting show.
Mary Lou's Crystal Repair will also be in attendance again this year to mend damaged crystal, china, porcelain, or pottery for you while you shop.....do not buy it new when she can fix it instead! THINK GREEN!
Mark your calendar now! Come out and show your support for a great community organization and join the GREEN MOVEMENT....buy an antique and become a top notch recycler! The show also has free parking & GOOD FOOD available. For additional information call (920)960-0755.
