In just a little while issue 22-4 of the Casino Chip and Token News magazine will be mailing out the club members homes. Except for Gene Trimble who got his in Early October...

This latest issue has some really great articles about illegal gaming in northern Kentucky, the first legal gaming clubs in Nevada, Circus Circus Las Vegas and a brand new "Phil's Forays" article from Phil Jensen. It has been a little while since Phil has written a new article for the club magazine and this one doesn't disappoint, great stuff!

Also included in this issue are important club related inserts. These inserts are for recommendations to the CC>CC Hall of Fame, a new OTY award nominating process and ballot, as well as an election nomination form for the upcoming CC>CC elections. There will also be another insert that will be printed on THE BACK on the mailing label inserted in the the poly bag mailer. As you may have noticed the club switched to a new style of mailing the magazine that is cheaper than the old white paper envelope. This new method of mailing includes a clear poly bag that the magazine is placed into with a 8.5 x 11 white sheet that covers the front cover. This sheet includes the club members mailing address. We have the ability to print on the back of this sheet at almost no cost. This issue the back of the mailing label will have the 2010 Convention Pre-Registration form. For those of you who like to mail in this form, look for it on the back of the mailing sheet.

I included a small "burst" on the front of the mailing sheet that reads "See back for Convention 2010 info" so members turn this sheet over, but maybe as a matter of fact you should always check the back on the mailing label for important information! :-)

Lastly, I am getting ready to start on the next issue of the club magazine and if any club member would like to contribute a story, article or anything they think is club related material drop me a line. We have some real talented writers and editors working on the magazine and if you have a seed of an idea that you would like to flush out let me know and we will make it happen. I'd like to get stories into me by January 1st to make our next scheduled mail date of March 1st.

Hope all is well, and keep on chipin'!
