The 2009 Convention will be held in Danbury, Connecticut

The O'Neil Center The 35th Annual NDGA Convention will be held at the O'Neil Center at Western Connecticut State University on July 11-12, 2009. This is a beautiful 42,000 sq ft facility, and should be a perfect fit for our next Convention.

The Convention Chairperson is Rosemary Trietsch. This is the first time the NDGA Convention has been held on the east coast since 1985(Lakeland, FL). The latest information is on our Convention page.

July 30, 2008 - Back to School purchases may help the NDGA.

For about a year now, the NDGA has been an Amazon.com affiliate, earning small commissions on your purchase of books on glass-related topics when you click through to Amazon on our " Glass Reference Books" pages. Now, Amazon has a special going on where you can click through to them and make purchases for back-to-school or back-to-college items and the NDGA will again receive a small commission on each purchase, with no additional cost to you. If you want to buy back-to-school items on Amazon, please do it through the NDGA. It's a painless way to donate to our success.

July 20, 2008 - St. Charles was a resounding success.

Thanks go to the Gateway Depressioneers Glass Club of Greater St. Louis, Betty Buersmeyer, chairperson, and her wonderful assistants for putting on a fine Convention. Displays and Seminars were great, and the Glass Show showcased some of the finest dealers and an outstanding selection of glass. You can check on the details on our Convention 2008 page, which has photographs of all the displays.

The Board of Directors has approved Danbury, Connecticut, as the site of the 2009 Convention, and has accepted a bid from Wichita, Kansas, as the site for the 2010 Convention. This is the first time in ages that we know the location of the next two Convention sites.

April 17, 2008 - A Whole new look for the NDGA web site.

Your webmaster has been busy making major changes to the "look and feel" of the NDGA web site. We think you will like the change. Whenever a massive change like this is done, there will inevitably be a few "glitches." We ask that if/when you run into one, please send an email to the webmaster@ndga.net and let him know the page (url) that caused the problem, and the nature of the problem. Let the webmaster know, too, if you liked or didn't like the changes.

You'll also find a few new articles posted. If you are preparing a program for your club meeting, check out the articles on this site (over 300 of them), in three different areas: "Articles", "News & Views" and "Rainbow Review/Glass Review." Look around, and you'll probably learn something new.
