Come ONE! Come ALL!
CHICAGO LAND CHIPPERS MEETING FOR JULY
The July meeting of the Chicago / Midwest Chippers will be held south of Chicago!
The date will be Sunday, July 15th. David and Denise Kolenda (aka: I Run 8's) will host it at their house. They have more then ample room to hold upwards of 40 people in the finished basement, plus still allow plenty of room for members to display their traders. They are located approx. 20 minutes south of the I-80 / I-94 junction in St John, Indiana.
Very easy to get to from I-80 east or west, I-94, I-294, I-57 or I-65. Email them
at: dkolenda@sbcglobal.net for the address and for directions. They are approx 1 hour east of the Joliet Casinos, 40 minutes south of Binions, Resorts, and the Majestic if anyone is thinking about making a weekend trip.
Time is not an issue, as they have said the hours will be between 11am and 4pm. That gives an open 5 hour window for people to drop in. Denise has said she will provide finger foods. Hopefully this will allow some of our southern members a chance to attend as well as; Ohio, Indiana, etc.. Please respond here on the board so we get an idea how many will try and attend, or send David an email. Come join us for a day of good company, and bring your spouse, or significant other.
TALK! LOOK! LISTEN! BUY! SELL! TRADE! BS TOO!
Let us know if you can make it! Thanks!
Also, according to Aaron Peacock...
The Chicagoland Chippers still have their Charity Chip available for pre-order. This is a wonderful chip that I am sure you would all love to have-email me and get a few for a minimum contribution of $10 each. Net proceeds will be going to the V Foundation to support Cancer Research, the chips are expected to be available for the convention (CC>CC Convention). Join the Chicagoland Chippers in helping support programs that benefit all of us.
Thank you all for your support.

ps. Not to brag, but I've ordered two of these. Also, Aaron is running a contest of sorts on TheChipBoard.com relating to these chips:
