I'd like to see if people would be interested in this idea. Here goes:

I would like to sponsor a casino chip and memorabilia WINTER TRADE FEST !

The main emphesis would be obviously trading. I am planning to do this sometime in the next 2 months or so. It would be an all day event with trading tables. I could also have some tables available for venders as well, but instead of the usual shows where the main idea is to sell and then trading is down sized I want the opposite. I dont want anyone to feel guilty about trading or do it broken up into little places. This way, if the main emphisis is the trading sessions all is good. AS WELL...people would come with all their chips with just that reason.

I am planning to do this in Toledo,OH . Now...heres what I am looking for:

1. An idea of how many people i can expect. Please post if you would be interested in something like this.

2. Input on a date...both desired dates as well as dates to avoid.

3. Any other ideas on the event.

Im just starting to put my ideas on this down on paper and its just the beginning. I didnt want to invest too much time if this isnt something people would want to come to. My instincts are...it will be big! Let me know what you think.
