Greetings all,

I am, and so is the entire Northern California Contest Club.
Yesterday we announced a special event occurring as part of CQP 2015. The
contest has been running 50 years! To celebrate, the CQP team is offering a
commemorative coin for meeting a few operating objectives.
Now as you all might expect, this is indeed a competition, and as such there
are some specific rules that need to be followed in order to win the California
GOLD RUSH Commemorative coin.
The official rules for the special event are here:
