Howdy Fellow CCA’ers,

Our 2021 nominations have been tallied, and our final OTY contenders have been decided! To all CCA Members that sent me their nominations, I want to extend my sincere gratitude to each one of you, this contest would not be possible without your continued participation and your love of our hobby! As always, you’ve chosen some great pieces to compete for 2021!

Here are the details for voting in the CCA OTY Awards:

1. Each CCA member in good standing is permitted to cast a vote for up to 3 nominees in each of the 3 open OTY categories. We have a weighted point system that will determine the final winners:

• Your 1st place vote will be given FIVE (5) points.
• Your 2nd place vote will be given THREE (3) points.
• Your 3rd place vote will be given ONE (1) point.
• You may only vote for an individual nominee 1 time in each category. You are not permitted to use all your votes for 1 choice to tally more points for your favorite collectible item.

2. Please specify your 1st, 2nd, & 3rd place choices in each category that you wish to vote in individually (COTY, SSOTY, and CKOTY), and match them with the corresponding letters for the item that you are voting for from the final nominee list and the corresponding pictures below.

3. Please remember to include your CCA member number.
The casino chip, Silver Strike and player’s card or room key that earns the most total points in each category after all the of your votes have been counted will be crowned our victorious 2021 CCA OTY Award winners! A single point could determine the difference between the winners and the losers here! If you want your favorite casino collectible to win, cast your votes wisely and make sure they count! Our 2021 CCA OTY Award champions will be decided by you!

Please email your votes to OTY@CCGTCC.com or link2179@juno.com.

Our deadline to submit votes for this year will be midnight CST on Sunday, April 17th. You know it will go by quickly, so send me your votes as soon as you can!

As always, our winners will be announced at our upcoming CCA Convention in June. Let’s get those votes rolling in, I’m excited to see which nominees you decide to vote for! I hope you all enjoy picking out your favorite collectibles and casting your votes!

Have Fun!

Trey Warren
