What is there to do at ONA Conventions?
You can enjoy bidding at auctions or negotiating deals on the bourse floor. You can enter an exhibit for competition or a non-competitive exhibit for educational purposes only. You can come out to receptions, the hospitality suite, and the banquet to enjoy fun, laughter, fine food, but most of all smiles as you grow friendships and networks. You can find those items for your collection that you have been searching for. You can attend education seminars to increase your numismatic knowledge. You can participate at meetings for various numismatic groups including the ONA meetings. If you pre-register for the convention, you will receive a kit of goodies including a convention medal. If you pre-volunteer for the convention and are present all three days, you will be recognized for that. If you attend the banquet, you will witness the presentation of awards, and you might be a recipient. Often there are extra-curricular activities available in the host city as arranged by the host club, these can be tours to local attractions. If traveling from out of town and pre-registering for the convention, you will get a special discounted accommodate rate.
