For the past 60 years, six antique car clubs in Portland, Oregon have held the "Always in April" Portland Swap Meet. I am pleased to announce that we will have it again April 10, 11 & 12, 2026!
However, with online classifieds, T-bay, and various internet sales, our proceeds are currently only about 20% of what they were ten years ago. The swap meet almost did not survive Covid. Looking down the road, I wonder how many more years we have until it is no longer a viable business model?
That being said, what does your club do for fundraisers?
How much are your local dues?
Do your dues cover operating costs?
Do members pay for everything out of pocket?
I'm not being an alarmist, but want to look forward for future options...
