the final Convention schedule - including all the non- CCA Events. Please post a link here or send me an email - jerrybirl@verizon.net

Looking forward to seeing everybody in a few days. I will be the Auctioneer at the Club Auction on Thursday night. I am looking forward to being a part of a very Special "On Line" Auction with bidders from all over the World having access to our CCA Annual Auction.

Unfortunately there will be a bunch of my old friends who will not be making the Convention this year for various reasons - I certainly will miss seeing them

Jim Kruse
Fred and Julie Dekeyser
John Zoesch
Wayne Thompson
Doug Balduini
Archie and Brenda Black
Howdie and Kregg Herz
Nate Pincus

Also friends who have recently passed away
Leo Tan
Fred Lamb
AJ Giametta

I am sure there are more that I have not added on the list but unfortunately the list gets longer every year.

On the flip side I hope to meet some new Chippers at the 33rd Convention. If you are new to the Hobby please stop by Table 5 and introduce yourself. I always enjoy talking with fellow Chip Collectors.

See you in a few days !!

Take care,
Jerry Birl
