IMPORTANT! To all of our paid subscribers:

The FAGCA board and office manager would like to say a heartfelt thank you to everyone who made our 2020 virtual convention (our 44th year) a success. Both sales (fixed price on Thursday and whimsy auction on Friday) were outstanding. We have you, our members, to thank for that. Without you, we could not have sold one piece of glass.

For those of you who attended, you saw how quickly we sold out of many of the items offered for sale during our Thursday morning live sale. We estimate that we sold 600+ pieces of glass during our live sale and whimsy auction. As you can imagine, it is going to take time to sort all the orders, make sure every person who purchased was a member prior to each of the sales, write up invoices, pack the glass so it arrives at its destination safely, call the members for their credit card numbers, run the credit cards, print labels, and finally take them to the post office. We expect this process to take a minimum of 2-3 weeks.

Since we had such an amazing response to our sales, we have decided to put any further orders on hold. We ask that you do not call the office asking what we have left to sell. We will not know for sure until we process all orders. Again, this is going to take 2-3 weeks until we know exactly what is left. We definitely have some glass left to sell; it's just that we need some time to make sure we do not disappoint our members by telling you something is available and then have to call you back to tell you we made a mistake.

So please be patient with us during this process. It is our first time for doing it. We did not know what to expect. (But I think we will know if we ever do it in the future......)

We are also asking you to let us call you when we have your order ready. For every phone call we get, it takes us away from the work that must be completed. There are a couple of us who do plan to help Nicole with the orders to try to get them processed more quickly. So again, please be patient.

Thank you so much for your support of our phenomenal club, the brainchild of visionaries, Ferrill Jean and Otis Rice. I'm sure if they were alive today, they would be so pleased!! We also have the Fenton family to thank for allowing a club to be named in their honor! It is a blessing and a thrill to be part of this club. Please invite your friends to come join us. We would love to have them join in our wonderful addiction that brings all of us so much joy.

























A vast majority of our membership will never physically make it to a convention. This year, we would like to bring something of convention, to you!
Anyone who has Facebook is welcome to watch and participate. Thursday, July 23rd, Friday, July 24th and Saturday, July 25th.
 If you do not have a Facebook, please feel free to ask a friend, or family member to assist you. Most of us know someone who already has a Facebook account, and it's free, and easy to set one up yourself; even if you only plan to use it for this virtual convention opportunity.
