Your thoughts are well made. That is why I suggested that the CC&GTCC Board create an Ad Hoc Committee to study the idea of a museum--which might be ours alone [so what if it's down the road--let's get on the highway], with the Cutlers, or something else.

Each year I donate 10% of all my CC&GTCC sales at the convention to the Club. I didn't sell much this year but will soon count them up and send a small check to the Club. Some of our vendors need every penny they collect to maintain their dealership--but some of us could make small donations from our sales in addition to our table cost. Others could donate a chip or two to the auction with all proceeds going to the Club. Others could donate hard cash. Maybe Gene and Jim could put on a song and dance show based on the materials they submit agains each other. But there are ways to raise money for such a project. I second the suggestions that we explore means of establishing a permanent "museum."
