OK, so this is not coin op related at all. If this post offends you then I apologize.

As you know, I run this forum, as well as CoinOpRegistry.com, CoinOpPreservationSociety.com (COPS) and AntiqueSlotMachinePriceGuide.com.

This year, I have not requested any membership fees from COPS and have never requested a donation for this forum or the registry.

My car club, Down the Road Corvettes, is helping the Denver Children's Hospital to get new toys. They need new toys because many of the kids are on chemo and have no immune system.

We have setup a website (http://www.downtheroadcorvettes.org/ToyRun.php which will allow people to donate to help us buy toys.

You can donate as little as $3. We will also acknowledge this forum on our website. Be sure and select CoinOpCollectorForum or CoinOpPreservationSociety on the dropdown.

As a further thank you, anyone who donates $20 or more will get a 30 day full subscription (not limited to machines under $7,000). This is an $80 value.

If you don't want to donate $20 but can donate something, even as little as $3 we will really appreciate it and more importantly, the kids will really appreciate it.

We are going toy shopping early next week so if you can donate please do it by the end of this week so we know how much we can spend.

The flyer which describes this event is below.

Thanks

Dave

All I can say is wow!!!

I am overwhelmed with the support from people in this forum.

Your donations are really going to help us get some great toys for the kids.

I also appreciate the kind emails that many of you sent.

Dave

The donations continue to come in.

As of 11:00 PM MDT everyone who donated $20 (or more) should have received an email with their unique code to use at http://www.AntiqueSlotMachinePriceGuide.com.

If you didn't receive the email then please let me know.

Our car club has mentioned this forum as well as COPS on their home page (http://www.downtheroadcorvettes.org)

A few people asked if they can donate via PayPal.

The answer is yes. You can send money via PayPal to PayPal@downtheroadcorvettes.org

If you do this, please indicate it is a gift so the club won't have to pay fees.

Thanks again everyone.

Dave

Just wanted to give you an update.

The Toy Run was held a couple of weeks ago and it was a huge success thanks to a big part from the Coin Op Collectors.

We were able to donate almost $3,000 in toys to Children's Hospital.

Our club made a YouTube video and it is at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jI930aU6LSk

Here are a few pictures.

Hi Dave,
I just want to say thanks to the members of your club for remembering the kids.

Glad to have been able to help. I remember doing same thing with the corvette club I belonged to in San Diego. We did toy runs and fixed up broken or donated bicycles. We had a 62 barn find straight axel. Thank god they don't build them like that anymore lol!!

I missed this and will help when needed again. I also miss my 69 Corvette My wife is going through cancer but kids are so much tougher to see. Let me know. Rick B

My Wife and my 69 25 years ago.
