Hello All,

I hope that everyone is doing well and staying safe!

We have just 2 days left to send in OTY nominations for your favorite casino items from last year to be considered for the 2019 awards, our deadline is 3/31, this coming Tuesday at midnight!

Thank you to all of our Member’s that have sent their nominations in so far, we appreciate your participation!

I’m ready to see some last minute nominees! Please take a moment to send a quick email and include your choices. Every active collector had to have that one chip that you were excited to hunt down, or heard that classic “Silver Strike” shout echo from the machine and turned that strike over to reveal the one that you were longing to get, or perhaps you waited in line for a bit to acquire that new slot or club card that your buddy showed you that you didn’t know came out. Those are the pieces that you should nominate!

If you have the latest issue of Casino Collectible News, check out page 36 for some tips on locating eligible nominees. I will include some possible chip options under this post, collected by our friend Paul Schaffer.

Here’s a brief rundown of rules and how to nominate:

There are 4 OTY Nomination categories:
1. Chip of the Year
2. Token of the Year (This is on hiatus at the moment)
3. CCA Silver Strike of the Year (The Silver Striker’s Club holds a separate contest)
4. Slot Card/Room Key of the Year

You may submit your nominations via email or mail.

Please email your nominations to OTY@CCGTCC.com or link2179@juno.com.

My address is:

Trey Warren
12916 Steadman Farms Dr.
Keller, TX. 76244

You must provide the Casino name, denomination (if it applies), a description, the city/locale, & the state/country that the item was released in. If you want to help me you can also include a picture if you send your nominations via email.
Also, the items that you submit had to be released in a casino in 2019. Any items released in 2020 will not be considered and will have to be resubmitted for consideration for next year's contest.

I’ll keep an eye on my email boxes and will be prepared to count your nominations!

Hopefully, this COVID-19 will be gone sooner rather than later and we can all return to our somewhat normal lives. Well wishes for our Members and their families and friends continue to be in our thoughts and prayers here at the Warren household. Take care everyone!

I look forward to having some fun in June!
