Just returned home from my third CCA convention and offer the following thoughts:
1. Thanks to the BOD and convention chair for all planning, negotiations, set up, and all the work we never see. Much appreciated!
2. Thanks to all the volunteers for making things run so smoothly.
3. Thanks to those who supervised the trade sessions. I attended 2 and although I didn’t make any trades, I appreciated the opportunity.
4. First time I stayed at the South Point. High marks all around. Plenty of good food options. Plenty of room in the convention area. Tables and chairs to sit and visit. Certainly recommend a return.
5. Thank you to the dealers. No show without them. Went with limited expectations as I am only looking to acquire missing Oklahoma chips. Told my wife before I left that finding 5 would probably be a success. Picked up over 25 chips I did not have, not counting the dozen or so new issue chips Paul Shaffer brought for me. Thanks Paul.
6. Thanks to the seminar presenters and Jim for organizing. Was able to attend 2 and both were excellent.
A great trip and looking forward to next year!
