he Dixie Jewels Insulator Club Spring Swap Meet will be held on Saturday, May 18, 2024 at the Mountain Home Fire and Rescue on U.S. Hwy. 25 in Mountain Home, North Carolina from 9:00-2:30. Mountain Home is south of Asheville, NC and north of Hendersonville, NC. Fred Pittman will be our host. This is always a popular meeting location and collectors are expected from 6 to 10 states. If you have insulators, go-withs and collectibles to show, sell or trade, you will need to bring your own table(s). There is no charge to set up, if you are a member. Non-members may set up for $5, but the good news is the $5 will make you a member of the club.
A noon meal will be served and side dishes and desserts are appreciated, but certainly not mandatory. Everyone is invited to dine with us. We always have plenty of food. If you go hungry at a DJIC swap, it’s your own fault!
Please contact Fred at trailat@bellsouth.net for more information, directions, or to let him know you will be able to attend. Be sure to mark your calendar for Saturday, May 18, 2024 and plan to join us! This will be a great opportunity to add to your collection and enjoy a day of fellowship with other collectors surrounded by the beautiful mountains of North Carolina.
