I appreciate the thanks, but all of the hard work was done by Mr. Barrett, who never ceases to amaze me with his talents & effort. The really cool part about this latest calendar (in my opinion) is that the majority of items shown for the individual months/casinos, were contributed by club members (ie Frank Steward for Harrah's Reno, Jason Skinner for Westcliff, Roy Klein for Glenn Rendezvous, Jim Follis for The Orleans, Robert Eisenstadt for Agua Caliente, Brian Cashman for the Golden Nugget, Charles Kaplan for Cuba, John Chopek for Resorts International, Barry Weintraub for Horseshoe Gardena, John Zoesch for Splash...) and we get to see items that we may never have seen or would be able to see. I know that the Queen of Casino Collectibles, Ms. Pam Goertler, also contributed mightily , so big thanks to her as well. My apologies (because I don't know who it is) to the person who provided the great items for Casino Niagara, but thank you very much also.

And thank you, Barry, for supporting this project just as you have every year.
