BECC Banquet Report - 2025

The Banquet was held on October 22, 2025 at the Tukwila Community Center.

Guest Speaker: The guest speaker was Jeff Pritchard, speaking about "American Slavery and the Liberty Cap."

Report by David Buehler: The annual banquet for the Boeing Employees Coin Club was revived after falling dormant because of the COVID pandemic and after effects. By all measures it was a big success with an excellent speaker talking on the subject of Liberty Caps used on world-wide coinage. The annual member award, now called the Del Cushing Award, was also revived and the award went to Dan G. for all his hard work in the club. There was no charge for food this year as the banquet was self-funded. As club funds edge closer to pre-COVID levels we may consider having it catered again. As usual, John E. arranged for a great cake with the current medal design as can be seen in the picture.
