As many of you know, I am collecting $1 chips that will be auctioned off at the convention this year (just like the slot cards were last year). All proceeds will go to the Building Fund. If you missed the original post, here is the link to the post.

Now for the update:
There has been an great response to the $1 Chip Building Fund Fundraiser in it's first 3 days. I currently have 164 chips donated. There are a couple of members that have said they would donate but did not say how many or which ones so I am not counting them right now. These chips have been donated by 30 club members. Of the 164 chips, 7 are not $1 chips and 6 are duplicates. This means that there are 154 different $1 chips in this lot right now. Kevin Aydelott is the current chip leader with 30 chips donated.

I have updated the list of the chips that have been donated so far. Take a look at this list and maybe you can find a chip or chips that you would like to donate that are not already on the list. Duplicates are just as good as chips not on the list. The link to his list is at the bottom of this message.

Hopefully we can have a complete set of current $1 chips from most of the states in the U.S. We have got a complete set from New Jersey right now. Which state will be next?

Please consider sending at least one $1 chip to support this great cause. A little help from everyone will make this a great lot of chips for whomever has the highest bid. Please let the chippers that are not on the internet know about this project. If you wish to donate a chip or chips, please send them to:

Thank you to all that have donated so far. I look forward to many more members donating.
Happy Chipp'in,
