Hello fellow collectors,

I am sure we can all agree that one of the best ways to grow and strengthen the CCA is by bringing in new members who share our passion for the hobby.

To help re-energize that effort (and add a little fun to the mix), I’m excited to announce a new twist to our “Recruiter of the Year” contest.

At our June convention, we will recognize the member who generates the most new memberships through referrals. This year, in addition to receiving a stylish plaque and well-earned bragging rights among your fellow members, the winner and a guest will be treated to dinner by my wife and me at one of South Point’s restaurants. Consider it both a reward for your recruiting prowess and a chance to see if your dinner conversation is as impressive as your sales pitch.

As the year continues, I’ll provide periodic updates on the standings so everyone can keep track of the friendly competition and perhaps feel a little extra motivation to convert that next potential collector.

To receive credit for a referral, the new member must include your name as ‘Referring Member’ when signing up on the website, or identify you as their referral when responding to the “Welcome to the CCA” email I send after their application is received.

Here are the current standings – reflecting all new memberships with specific referrals received between June 18 – today:

If you have any questions about the contest or how referrals are tracked, please feel free to reach out.
