I want to publicly thank Gene and the Fiesta for not only donating the 50 chips for the Club use but for numbering 25 of them to make them unique. We have reserved chip #1 to be auctioned at the Club auction Friday night. All others will be given to individuals working on the Convention.
For those who don't know, Gene was also responsible for getting the Poker Tournament together, getting the poker chips approved (with a great deal of help from Bee Estes @ Chipco), and getting several casinos to place ads in the Convention program. It's the hard work of Gene and many others like him who make the Convention such a great time. Thanks Gene and everyone else who has contributed so much!
Wayne
