Student Card Collectors in the area,
Please come and join the 21st Annual Cards For Kids show this Saturday in Preston from 10:00 am-2:00 pm.
Students have attended from Lancaster, WI, to Davenport, IA, to Iowa City, IA, and schools in between.
Craig initially started this event 26 years ago to get students involved in a productive hobby instead of cell phones. Fast-forward to today, and it is more important now than ever.
Craig NEVER makes any money on this event, and students profiting from the event is not remotely a goal. It's about students learning a buy-sell-trade hobby, getting their collectibles out, and enjoying 4 hours of each other's company.
This year, the event is giving away $1,500 in prizes (see attachment) thanks to local donors.
