The last year of my Presidency is coming to an
end. I have enjoyed it tremendously. The club
continues to grow and more events are planned
for the future. I hope all members are enjoying
the magazine and our meetings in Chicago. Our
last meeting was an enjoyable one. John Papa
was our guest speaker and he shared with us
many of his restoration secrets. I know we
enjoyed it based on the number of comments I
received at the meeting and thru e-mails after the
show. I want to thank John and his team for put-
ting together this wonderful meeting.
Alex has lined up another great meeting in April.
Check his article for more information. Please
remember, we are doing all we can to make this
club a club for "All" members. Let us know
when we do something well and do the same
when we need to correct something. There are
some great auctions planned for 2003. We will
keep you informed thru the magazine and on our
website. Nominations for the November meeting
will be up for discussion at the April show and in
November we will hold the new elections. If you
have questions on running for an office, please
feel free to contact me personally. We are always
looking for new blood. I hope to see you all in
April at the Chicagoland Slot Show. For those
who can't attend, have a great summer and see
you in the fall.
Paul Hindin,
President
