Meeting pics are up! See them here. Another great meeting with Joe B being able to attend via Skype and Jim W is always great as auctioneer. Don’t forget about our 1/72 scale online group build. I’ve created a section for it on our forums. See you next month!

Congrats to Nationals Winners and Next Meeting Notice
DONATIONS NEEDED FOR OUR MODEL KIT AUCTION CLUB FUNDRAISER:
Donations of any new or used model kits, sprues, parts, tools, modeling materials, books and magazines are requested for our club fundraising auction.
Here’s a good opportunity to get rid of some of those kits you know you’ll never build or sell and those leftover kit sprues and miscellanous parts that are hanging around your work bench and benefit a good cause: us.
Anything you can donate will be greatly appreciated.
This is the club’s only fundraising activity.
The money collected will be re-invested to fund future club activities (pizza and drinks for our Build Nights, summer and year end potlucks, raffles, quarterly build and special build contest prizes, local model show and contest category awards sponsorships, etc.) and will help to keep our monthly meetings FREE to all attendees.
Although we naturally prefer armor-related items, any non-armor, incomplete, partially built and left over kits or other modeling-related stuff of any type is also welcome. And cash is always an acceptable donation alternative.
Remember, one modeller’s trash can be another modeller’s treasure and may provide exactly what’s needed to complete that special modelling project.
Please bring whatever you can donate to the meeting.

OK, guys, this is the big event meeting that we all wait all year for.
Don’t miss this great opportunity to pick up some great model kits and other modeling stuff at fantastic prices or just be entertained by our always amusing Master Kit Auctioneer Jim Wechsler.
Each year, over the last few years that we have been hosting club auctions, our club members have come through with an incredible variety and amount of stuff for the auctions. Everyone usually goes home satisfied with a number of new items for their collections.
Part of the fun is you never know what stuff will show up and how cheaply you can get it.
