David introduced a new and as yet undiscussed topic..... insurance.... "On a slightly more serious note, I'm checking into the possibility of obtaining temporary insurance on the storage items should the unwanted/unforeseen arise. As soon as we get a better handle on what's coming I can get some more definitive quotes..." To tell the truth, this didn't occur to me.... but I think it's probably something we should talk about and decide upon. There is no worry about the "Gift Certificates". I have a Safety Deposit box at my bank and there is no problem with placing a few documents in it..... it isn't stuffed totally full of gold bars and share certificates.... Actual merchandise is a different matter... There are people here with far more experience with club contests..... how have other groups dealt with this issue? 1. Is it necessary? 2. Who is insured - the person holding the prizes or the club? 3. How secure are the storage facilities and who has potential access to them? Is there any possibility of water/rodent damage/break-in/fire/smoke damage? 4. How much is it going to cost for the insurance?
