my thanks to others on the Judge's Pamphlet, I will do so again after the voting cut-off.
However, I can't miss this opportunity to again say thanks to Christie Gregory for scanning and posting over 80 different Silver Strikes to the SSOTY Viewing Page so that many Judges could take a look at what they wanted to nominate.

Also, with the exception of one Silver Strike, all of those strikes appearing in the Judge's Pamphlet were packaged and sent to me, for the duration of the Convention by Dennis Finn! I only regret that they are only on-loan and I have to give them back!

Actually, I am very greatfull that Dennis has made them available for our use, and all of them, along with the 10 nominees from the COTY and TOTY categories, will be on display at the Convention. Be sure to stop by the Exhibit Table and view this non-competitive display.

I hope to see you there.
