Silver State Challenge
The Greater Reno Stamp & Cover show is attempting to increase the diversity of exhibits while maintaining a "safe" environment for the exhibiting styles often found at local shows.  Exhibits that have received vermeil or higher awards at a WSP show will compete in the Silver State Challenge.  Entering an exhibit in the Challenge will provide an opportunity for aspiring but less experienced exhibitors to examine nationally recognized exhibits.  Let us know if you would like to conduct a mini-workshop on how you prepared your exhibit including theme development, selection and presentation of material, and helpful hints. See more on the Silver State Challenge concept in the July 2005 issue of The Philatelic Exhibitor (used by permission of the author).
