Greetings Peanuts Fans,
The 75th anniversary is happening and East Coast Collectors is extremely excited to be celebrating this milestone.
In order to make this celebration special we are starting the weekend a day earlier than usual in order to honor the years of fabulous Peanuts and Snoopy fun on the very day it started 75 years ago!! That's right, the East Coast Collectors Weekend will for the first time officially begin on Thursday, October 2nd in honor of the day the first strip was published and started bringing love, joy and kindness to the world.
The committee has been working hard on building a great event with lots of fun for all to enjoy. All the favorite events are returning starting with SPIKE bingo at registration all the way through to Sunday morning where "Sally's Show and Tell" ends the weekend. Thursday you can join us for a dinner party to celebrate on the anniversary date with trivia, door prizes and the silent auction. We have a great outing planned for Friday, visiting the National Christmas Center in Elizabethtown, PA (check out the website at the link below). Friday will also include room sales and a double feature movie night to follow it up. Saturday will see our well known sales market, some fun speakers, the Saturday banquet and the wonderful charity voice auction. This will be weekend not to be missed.

We made the TV news during our last event.
We were visited by local channel 8 WGAL. They were interested to see what all the excitement was about. See one of our founders Chuck Macy giving them the scoop.
