RUGER OWNERS & COLLECTORS SOCIETY, INC


ROCS 4th ANNUAL OGCA DISPLAY SHOW

WILMINGTON, OHIO

JULY 14 & 15, 2018


Narrative by Bill Hamm
Pictures by Terrie Hill, OGCA Director
& Vince Carabetta, ROCS Vice President

The ROCS 4th OGCA Display show was another great success! Our displays were once again placed in an island in the middle of the show just as you walked in the door. The OGCA Members attending the show really seemed to enjoy our Rugers. There was a constant crowd viewing the displays, talking with the displayers, asking questions, etc. Lee Sundermeier, Show Coordinator, did his usual great job organizing and carrying out this event. Wayne Dennis and Denny Polter manned the ROCS table and signed up several new members and some renewals at the show.

This is a very high quality show with approximately 750 tables. The OGCA has about 18,000 members. Go to www.OGCA.com to learn more about them and how to join. We highly recommend it!!

There were 18 displays on 21 tables of some of the finest and rarest Rugers made. We want to give a big thanks to all of the displayers for their hard work building, transporting, setting up and tearing down their display. A great big thanks to Terrie Hill, OGCA Director and our own Vince Carabetta, ROCS Vice President, for taking some great photos of the displays, displayers and Awards Banquet.

Only the title of the display, displayer's name and judging class along with some photos of each display are shown here on the website. Detailed write-ups and photos of each display and the awards banquet will be included in the ROCS Fall 2018 Digest magazine. If you are not an active member of ROCS please join today so you will not miss the insight to these great displays!!
