All are welcome to join us for the meeting and there is no obligation to join. Come meet other members in a friendly fun atmosphere.

Our meetings are short, which gives you lots of time to socialize (in line with current restrictions) and gain knowledge about whatever interests you with casino memorabilia collecting.

On behalf of the SNCCC, I sincerely hope you will join us and hope to talk to everyone there.
