The show will go on if we have anything to do with it.

 

The only problem will be if the County of Los Angeles cancels it as it is their property.

 

But two months away and way to far out to make any calls on it.

To all of our dealers, friends and customers that we care deeply about…We are sad to announce the rescheduling of the upcoming West Coast Historical Militaria Collectors Show. As you know, our annual event occurs every May, however, due to increasing COVID-19 concerns and a recent executive order from Mayor Garcetti to close all LA County entertainment venues (including The Fairplex/LA County Fairgrounds), we have been given no choice and the show has been forced to reschedule to next year, on May 7-8, 2021.

As most of you know, we have been unwavering in our desire to follow through, as planned, with this event, so we were very disappointed to get the call this afternoon from The Fairplex stating they are completely shutting down ALL of their events. They are hoping to review the situation in “early May” but there is no set plan and they can only reassess when the time comes. Unfortunately, we were given no viable options to reschedule dates for anytime this year, so the best scenario was to secure our dates for next May, on our usual weekend.

We want to thank all our loyal dealers who have unfailingly supported this unique show, many of them for 20+ years. We also want to thank the large number of new dealers who wanted to join us this May. And of course we are very grateful to the public who support shows like ours; the exceptional groups of hobbyists, collectors, history buffs, reenactors, museums, veterans and their families and so many more. We greatly appreciate each and every one of you. Please be aware that if you have paid for tables, we will be rolling everyone over to the May 7-8, 2021 show date at The Fairplex, in Building 9. Thank you for continuing to support this show, this industry and this hobby. If you have not signed up yet, and would like to be a part of The West Coast Historical Militaria Collectors Show, please mark your calendar for this new date May 7-8, 2021 and join us, we will be making the appropriate changes to the www.militariashow.com website as soon as possible.

In addition, we have been in touch with our sales reps at the onsite Fairplex Sheraton Hotel and informed them we have been required to reschedule the WCHMCS May show, and therefore must reschedule the hotel rooms associated with the event. If you have reserved your own personal rooms at The Sheraton Fairplex, we advise you to contact them directly to cancel those reservations as soon as possible.

While we are disappointed about being forced to move the show, the well being of others is certainly our bigger concern. So, please look out for one another; it really is critical to support one another during these challenging times. Check in on your elderly neighbors, don’t take more than you need at the grocery stores, and let those that matter to you know just how much, every single day. The impacts of COVID-19 on our collector community has been vast and there is no question this is a time of great uncertainty. While we don't know exactly what the future may hold, we feel confident that by sticking together and supporting each other, we will emerge from this stronger than before.

Our thoughts are with all of you and we hope you are all safe and healthy.

Bob and Danielle Chatt
