Broward Shell Club: a success story

摘要

In the last issue (American Conchologist (45-1) 1 March 2017: 28-29), I reported on the Broward Shell Club annual Shell Show, 14-15 January 2017. I had lots of images, including Doug Thompson with his COA Award, as well as plenty of dry facts, such as 332 feet of exhibit space and 28 different scientific entries. I listed most of the winning entries in the scientific division, as well as the scientific judges: José Leal and Rich Kirk, plus the Show Chairperson: Alice Pace. This information and the images were all kindly provided by club member Nancy Galdo (co-publicity person with Richard Kent). I usually crowd shell show results into a single page, but Nancy sent so much material that I expanded it to two pages (as I did for the Sarasota Shell Club Show in the same issue). Thank you to both clubs, but that is not why I am writing this.
