I left Friday morning and got back late last night from my weekend trip to A C for our A C Casino Collectibles Club meeting. I stayed 3 nights comped at Bally's and ate for free using the Diamond Lounges, free buffets and other comped meals. Also had over $400.00 in free slot play at Harrah's Chester, Bally's, Showboat and Harrah's A C.

On the way up on Friday while "Harvesting" some Roulettes at Delaware Park and Harrah's in Chester I won $300 on the Roulette tables. Also won at almost every slot machine I played on Friday night - when your hot, your hot. Gave some back the next couple of days - but still came home a winner.

I stopped and saw Jim Episale on Saturday afternoon at his shop in Barnegat, NJ and picked up a few chips - always good to see my friend Jim.

Sunday's Club meeeting was very good. Nice newly decorated room, good crowd of chippers and lots of new and interesting chips. i picked up many, many Roulette chips from the Delaware and Pennsylvania casinos for my collection. Also sold and traded a bunch of chips, slot cards, etc. It was a very busy day !!

I am pleased with the shape the Club is in - picking up some new members and looking to the future for even more growth and activities. I want to thank the current officers for all of their hard work on behalf of the Club. New leadership will be taking over next May (when I step down as President) and I am predicting even better things for the Club in the coming years..

Our next meeting will be November 14th at Bally's and we will be having another luncheon for Club members following the meeting - details will be announced soon. So make your plans to join us at the November meeting.

Take care,
Jerry Birl
