Hello CCA’ers,

Our 2022 OTY nominations have been collected, and our final OTY candidates have been decided by you! Thank you to our CCA Members who submitted nominations to get us started, and thanks to those that have already sent me votes, this contest would not be possible without your continued participation and your support for our hobby! For those members that have not voted yet, please do so as soon as you can.

Here are the rules and details to vote in the CCA OTY Award contest:

1. Each CCA member in good standing is permitted to cast a vote for up to 3 nominees in each of the 3 open OTY categories. We have a weighted point system that will determine the final winners:

• Your 1st place vote will be given FIVE (5) points.
• Your 2nd place vote will be given THREE (3) points.
• Your 3rd place vote will be given ONE (1) point.
• You may only vote for an individual nominee 1 time in each category. You are not permitted to use all your votes for 1 choice to gain more points for your favorite collectible item.

2. Please specify your 1st, 2nd, & 3rd place choices in each category that you wish to vote in individually (COTY, SSOTY, and CKOTY), and match them with the corresponding letters for the item that you are voting for from the final nominee list and the corresponding pictures below.

3. Please remember to include your CCA member number.

The casino chip, Silver Strike and player’s card/room key that earns the most total points in each category after all the of your votes have been counted will be crowned our victors and earn the honors of becoming our 2022 CCA OTY Award winners! A single point could determine the difference in the contest and which pieces rank supreme. If you wish for your favorite casino collectible to win, cast your votes wisely! Our 2022 CCA OTY Award champs will be decided by you!

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

Our deadline to submit votes for this year will be midnight CST on Sunday, April 16th. That date will sneak up on us, so send me your votes now!

Our ultimate 2022 OTY winners will be announced at our upcoming CCA Convention in June on Saturday, June 17th. I’m excited to see which you items you think deserve to stand amongst our past winners, and share the news with you at the show about your chosen champions for 2022. Get those votes in ASAP! I hope you all enjoy choosing your favorite collectibles from our nominees and casting your votes!

See you in June!
