Upcoming Chesapeake Region EventsSpring 2019 Chesapeake Region plate meet6th Annual ALPCA Chesapeake Region Spring Meet This event is not open to the general public.
Our annual spring meet in southern Virginia has plenty of room for you! Chesterfield is located just south of Richmond, not far off of Interstate 95. Same great location as in past years. Summer 2019 Chesapeake Region plate meet10th Annual ALPCA Chesapeake Region Summer Meet This event is not open to the general public.
Our summer meets at this location have been big hits, so of course we're going to do it again this year! Mount Airy is located between Baltimore and Frederick, along Interstate 70. Same great location as in past years. Future Chesapeake Region meetsWe haven't yet made any specific arrangements for plate meets beyond August 2019, but we're working on it. We do plan to continue to hold a meet in southern Virginia each spring and a meet in Maryland each August. We would also very much like to hold additional meets in other locations within our territory, such as in Delaware, or along the I-81 corridor in western Virginia. To do this, we need to find suitable venues and people willing to help plan and host meets in these locations. If you know of an inexpensive meet hall (maximum $500 to rent for 8 hours) that has at least 40 8-foot tables (or can accommodate 300 people seated banquet-style), level access, and adequate parking, located anywhere in Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, or Washington, D.C., we'd very much like to hear the details. Tell us about it! Be sure to check back here periodically for the lastest information on upcoming Chesapeake Region plate meets! Upcoming ALPCA conventions
ALPCA conventions are held annually every June or July in various locations around the United States. The ALPCA convention is the mother of all plate meets, with many hundreds of collectors in attendance, and probably millions of plates being displayed, traded, and sold. Below are the locations and dates for the next few years. Check the ALPCA web site for more details.
Other plate collecting eventsFor many years now, there's been a "Spring Thaw" plate meet in Annandale, Va., outside of Washington, D.C., in early March. (This meet, though hosted by two ALPCA members, is an independent plate meet not affiliated with ALPCA or the ALPCA Chesapeake Region.) As far as we know, the Annandale meet is going to continue to happen each year. Check the following links for info on the Annandale meet, as well as other plate meets and plate-related events througout North America.
