WILDROSE
CHAPTER
The
Wildrose Chapter was organized during the summer of 1989 and approved by the Beer Can Collectors Of America as Chapter #130
in September of the same year. The club
is also affiliated with the Canadian Brewerianist Society and in early 2001 was
designated as Chapter #11 of that group.
We
have a current membership of about 55 people who share a common interest in
beer can and breweriana collecting and trading. Roughly 50% of our members reside in the province of Alberta,
with the balance represented by collectors from British Columbia, Saskatchewan,
Manitoba, Ontario, Nebraska, Pennsylvania and England.
The
club meets four times per year in the Calgary, Edmonton or Red Deer areas.
Annual
dues are $10 payable each calendar year, with a family membership available for
$15 per year. Cheques or money orders
should be made payable to Wildrose Chapter and forwarded to the
secretary/treasurer, Peter Zboya.
