: : : If you guys want to give it a try, we can set up a section of the site for the club. Part of the reason I created shotglass.org was to give people a place to learn and meet.
: : : The hard part is to come up with ideas for the club, and to get people interested...
: : : What do you guys think a club could/should do that this site doesn't?
: : : To answer my own question, we need to have a shotglass with the logo :)
: : : Somebody once mentioned a "shot of the month club" -- everybody gets a shot in the mail, once a month. I haven't found a good source of glasses, but if each one of us could buy X glasses from someplace local, and everybody would be assigned a month where they were responsible for shipping out glasses to the rest of the members -- it might work.

: : : : : all we need to is create a website....unfortunatly i dont have enough experience.....
: : : : :maybe we could incorporate a club into this website- mark/what do you think? the website is already used and informative-a club section possibly
: : : :

: : : : : : : : Is there really a club still active for shot glass collectors? The Shot Glass Club of America by Mark Pickvet I thought folded but its still on the internet. Do we need to start our own?
: : : : : : : Hello Paul, If you want to start a club please count me in. Dave

: : :MARK- ACTUALLY ,YOUR WEBSITE ALREADY DOES MUCH THAT A CLUB WOULD DO- INFORMATION, MESSAGE BOARD ,ETC. I DO LIKE THE IDEA OF A -SHOTGLASS -A MONTH.
: : A CLUB-ALTHOUGH WEB BASED, MIGHT ALLOW SOME NON-WEB MEMBERS TO GET INVOLVED,WITH A SHORT MAILED NEWSLETTER, OR JUST SOLIDIFY MORE COMRADERIE BETWEEN COLLECTORS.
: : IT WOULD JUST BUILD ONTO THE WEBSITE.
: : A CLUB SHOT WOULD BE GREAT-WITH CLUB LOGO- MAYBE CHGD YEARLY ADDING A GEOGRAPHIC CHANGE EACH YEAR.
: ::: Hi Guys, looks like this thing might fly ! The logo glass is a great idea. As far as the shot of the month goes, I and I'm sure some others don't have a glass supplier locally. This may defer some from joining up. What do you think of the idea of each member recieving a shot from all the other members on his or her birthday. Dave
You would not need to have a local supplier to participate in the "shot of the month" -- you would just need to take a vacation or a road trip once a year (or am I the only one who has driven 4 hours just to buy shotglasses?)
There are also a bunch of places online that sell glasses -- you might even get a discount for ordering a dozen or more of the same thing...
Has anybody ordered glasses from huntermfg.com? You have to call them on the phone, but they sell all kinds of sports glasses.
Just trying to think of other ways for people to get glasses....
