Published Quarterly By Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio - Token and Medal Society

IKO-TAMS Bulletin Vol. 34 No. 3 July - September 2011

SCHAEPER HONORED WITHLIFE MEMBERSHIP

by Dave Gossett

I am very pleased to announce that Jerry Schaeper Jr. has beenvoted Life Member (LM) #12. This action was taken at theWarsaw Regional Meeting in June after Jerry’s work asdescribed in the Bulletins was reviewed and considered by theofficers. During the early years of IKO-TAMS, Jerry served inthe following capacities:< President 2 years< Vice President 4 years< Sgt. At Arms 8 years< Quarterly Mail Bid Auction manager 3 years< Presented programs at Quarterly Meetings

In more recent times, Jerry has been active in supporting ourannual shows, and has led the way in recruiting new members.

In case you are wondering the other LM's are Gaylor Lipscomb(deceased), Lloyd Wagaman (deceased), Bill Hamm, DaveGossett, Dale Wilges, Hank Spangenberger, Terry Stahurski,Jack Siles, Tom Wehner, and Kevin Grant. One other awardeelater resigned his Life Membership.

The Life Membership is presented to members who haverendered outstanding or extraordinary service to IKO-TAMS andthe hobby in general. As a token of appreciation, Jerry received aspecial engraved metallic membership card and no longer paysany annual dues.

PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

Preparations for the Oct. 21st and 22nd annual show atEnglewood, OH continue. Bourse applications were sent weeksago to those who reserved tables last year plus potential newdealers. Some reservations have already come in including a newdealer and one who has not had a table in years. Speaking ofdealers, Virginia King will not be at the show due to healthreasons. This will be the first annual show she has ever missed.What a record! Show fliers are ready and distribution isbeginning in earnest. Vice President Vore has been active inarranging publicity with other exonumia groups. Our website hasthe details. Assistance of each member in recruiting dealers andwith publicity is requested. Our more central location shouldlead to the biggest show in years.

Henry Smith had a real nice article on the Wheel Cafe in ourprevious bulletin. We need more. I'll bet you could do one.

Take a close look at the interesting auction Terry Stahurski hasput together. This takes a lot of work. Support the effort bymailing in those bids if you can't attend the show.

A pat on the back is also due to Kevin Grant for the three bigjobs he does for us on a continuing basis. Let him know howmuch you appreciate his work.

See you in October!

EDITOR’S NOTES

Check out the end of the Bulletin for the auction items and theShow information. Terry Stahurski is to be commended for putting together another great auction and Dave Gossett laudedfor his efforts to put on the Show all by himself. Succeedingyears should be easier, but I know how much work Dave has putinto this year’s Show and it was not easy to do. Thanks, Dave!

With the length of this Bulletin something had to suffer. Thenumber of new mavericks in this issue is very short. Look forthe column to be more robust in the next quarter.

Many thanks also go to Jack Smith for his contribution ofIndiana Good For mirror images. I hope you will enjoy this newseries over the next few issues.

JUNE IKO MEETING

The last IKO meeting was held on June 11, 2011. As always,it was graciously hosted by Virginia King in Warsaw, IN. Wehad eight members present and four guests.

In the business portion of the meeting IKO President DaveGossett discussed the upcoming October meeting inEnglewood, OH. The location will be about 2 miles fromwhere we held the show many years ago in Englewood. Davepromised to have the bourse applications in the mail shortly.

Dave reminded members to get their tokens to Terry Stahurskifor the auction portion of the October show. Terry always putstogether a wonderful auction, but can’t do it without help fromall of us.

We continue to look for a new Secretary. Jack Siles has heldthis office since 2004 and is looking to reduce his work load. Are you able to make the commitment to help IKO? Please letDave know if you are interested.

As a side note, Jack Siles has temporarily moved. If you needto get in touch with Jack, please call Dave for Jack’s currentaddress.

The highlight of the meeting was the discussion of JerrySchaeper’s contributions to IKO and his nomination for LifeMembership. Jerry’s contributions through the years hasgreatly improved IKO as a whole. See page 25 for moreinformation.

Vice President Ron Vore is coordinating the publicity for theOctober show. He will be contacting many token groups andindividuals to promote the event.

Lastly, it was reported that IKO member Jack Smith is homerecovering from lung cancer surgery. While full recovery willtake some time, Jack says he is getting around better and hasmade a few trips out of his house recently. We all hope to seeJack back on the token circuit soon.
