Sat. 4/27 a bunch of Northwest chippers got together at Freddie's Casino in Fife, WA. Thankfully, no one got elected to anything and no minutes were read because we aren't a chapter, just a bunch of friends who like chipping! Almost everyone showed up but we missed Don Lueders who we surmised was battling a computer virus and Jim Fredrickson and Dorthy Mageris were missing also but the OR. coast was represented by Dean Richmond and Jodi Sones, competeing with Steve Goodrich for long-distance award.

Thanks to Al W. Moe and the Freddie's crew for the hospitality. Freddie's Fife is fairly new and features dark wood, brass and etched glass for a nice clubby atmosphere. They gave over a nice portion of their resturant for plenty of chip binder space and even provided us with major munchies. Thought I'd take this opportunity to post the flyer of Al's revised book, Nevada's Golden Age Of Gambling
