What really separates this group from many that have a specific item orientation is the warm comradeship among the members, and active collecting and trading of steins: also, their thirst for
knowledge about the stein's history, the history about the stein production company, and any associated artist in the production process are important to our members.

Our general meetings typically include a social period, a substantial stein sales table, great home cooking, quality beverages, and a meeting to discuss local activity within the chapter.
Our thirst for knowledge is displayed by comments from guest speakers. Beyond that we have within our group individuals who have been published on subjects ranging from Character Steins, Mettlach Steins, Franz Ringer Steins, Ludwig Hohlwein Steins, and the works of artist Heinrich Schlitt to name a few.
