Joel, that’s actually a really thoughtful observation.

Membership growth naturally becomes a central topic because it touches so many aspects of the club’s future. But you’re right that there are other important areas we should always keep improving as well.

For me, one of those areas is continuing to strengthen the convention and the overall experience for members who attend. Understanding who is coming to the show, why they attend, and what they enjoy most can help us make the event even better each year.

Another important area is making sure the club continues to serve as a hub for the broader hobby — collectors, historians, dealers, and enthusiasts alike — helping preserve gaming history while keeping the hobby accessible and fun for collectors.

The strength of the CCA has always been the community around the hobby, and continuing to build that community is something I care deeply about.

Respectfully and focused on the future,

Dan Madrigrano R-9148
Candidate for VP of the CCA
