ATCA National Show, Shipshewana, Indiana - From ATCA announcement

2010 National Show
Shipshewana, Indiana
August 6,7, 2010
Call 260-768-4595 to reserve a spacious room. The hotel manager told me
last week that several have already reserved which is good news. Due to the large
antique show that will be adjacent to the ATCA National Show, once our block
is full, it will be difficult to get more rooms. The last time we had the show here,
we used all our block.
We would never be able to spend enough money on advertisement to bring
in as many buyers as the Antique Show will generate. The Shipshewana Auction
and Antique Mall advertises this show for months not only is publications but to
the thousands of buyers who come to the auction and flea market each week.

The show will be held in the Conference Center of the Farmstead Inn. Outside on
the hugh lawn will be a quality antique show that will be held in tents and under
the sun.
Next to the Farmstead Inn is a very nice Antique Mall, one that screens its
vendors and only allows antiques.
Across the street there will be a large Amish Quilt show and auction again.
By taking a short walk uptown, you will be amazed at all the Amish crafts, furniture,
and FOOD that will attract you. The entire area is largest Amish community in the
Tri-State. This is a great place to vacation. The hotel is extending our special rate
both before and after the show. Call now to reserve your room at 260-768-4595.
The rooms will fill fast not only because of us, but also because of the many who
come here for the Antique Show.
If you are only used to going to a show and having a hundred or less interested
folks walking in from the public, then you will be in for a surprise. We will
be packed with over a hundred eight foot tables and lots of buyers. Last year we
had 110 tables at this show.

The show agenda is as follows:
Friday August 6 6 PM plenty of food topped off with fresh pies
Friday August 6 8 PM show opens for set-up and dealing
Saturday August 7 Show opens at 8 AM fresh donuts & coffee
Saturday August 7 2 PM Auction
Saturday August 7 Board Meeting.... Board will set time

Warning:
If you are not interested in setting up at a telephone show that will have
hundreds of buyers going by your table, then you will not like this show. Other
than the Springfield Ohio Regional Show, there has never been a telephone
show anywhere that has had or will have as many from the public streaming
by our tables. Come prepared to meet the public. Come prepared to "deal"with
the public. If your prices are right, you will move lots of items.
