Debby,
I was not at the First meeting of ths CC>CC at the ANA, but I'm pretty sure it was an informal meeting and nobody even thought about making a chip for this initial get together. After the First meeting somebody figured that since we were Chip Collectors it would be a good idea to make a chip to commemorate the Annual get togethers so they made one to be given out at the next ANA Convention meeting. The rest is History !!!
Take care,
