Club Classifieds: I am interested in starting or joining a JD club inSW Florida and could use your assistance either in locating or starting a club. Thanks, Les Reiselt Contact me at lreiselt at hotmail.com.

Calling all Clubs: Because we believe clubs are the backbone and future of John Deere collecting, GreenCollectors.com is campaigning to get every collector club included in our Club directory. If your collector club (and it doesn’t have to be John Deere-only) isn’t in our Directory below, would you mind adding it yourself, or asking your Club President to have someone do this? It’s free. Just go to the bottom of any Directory page and click Add a Listing. Once your Club is in our directory, we can give self-publishing rights to one of your Club Members so that you can do all updates and changes yourself via a Web browser. You can also publish your own Announcements, Calendar events and even your own Club newsletter to the entire GreenCollectors audience like this 2004 Gathering of the Green update. And if your Club would like to move up to a full-blown Web site that would look similar to the one we created for the Deer Valley Collectors, we can do that to (for a charge). We’re doing this because we believe it’s in the best interests of all of us to have Collector Clubs around the world sharing with and learning from other Clubs. We will sincerely appreciate any help you can give this effort. Comments or questions?
