February and March Meetings

Don — Sun, 22 Jan 2012 15:38:36 +0000

Hi, folks;

I wanted to get this post out as this web site will be closing in February and we will be going with our Facebook site ONLY until our new Show Website gets running – hopefully with a club add-on to go with it at some point.

The February Meeting will be at 7pm, Wednesday February 8 at the Westmount Library. I will be on Holidays, so Kerry will be filling in and running the night. He has promised to be nicer than me and will have a presentation to be announced then. Thank you for filling in for me.

The March Meeting will be at 7pm, Wednesday March 14 at the Westmount Library. This Meeting will be our annual Swap Night – so bring out all your kits you will not be building, books unread, etc. and let the rest of us have a crack at them! I will be back from vacation by then and will be looking to buy and sell some great stuff!!!

REMEMBER – IN ALL LIKELYHOOD THIS WILL BE THE LAST POST ON THIS WEBSITE. See y’all on Facebook.

Best - Don

January Meeting Minutes

Don — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 15:10:42 +0000

The January Meeting was a lot of fun, with the Members bringing in a number of kits to qualify for their 2012 Year Build. Many comments and votes on which kit each menber should build.

We had 5 new Memberships sold - 3 returning “old” members and 2 new ones. Also – a prospective member, Alik, came out to see what we were all about. Welcome to all of the above – it looks like 2012 will be a good year with lots of new blood.

Club Election for President (or Railroading – whichever you prefer lol) were held with yours truly being acclaimed for another 2 year term.

Tom and his Show Committee will be working on getting the 2012 Show website up and runing in the next couple of months.

Best to all – Don

Plea from Adam for Kits for Show

Steve — Tue, 11 May 2010 00:56:45 +0000

Hey guys!

As you are all likely aware, this coming Wednesday is our yearly swap
night! Not only does that mean the ‘Great walking in circles event’ is
on, but it’s also a great time for you to bring your old, complete,
unstarted but largely antiquated and unsaleable kits to the “Bring out
your dead”.

We’d like to try this again at the coming show, but we need kits to do
it with. I know we have a couple left over from last time, but if you
have something you can donate to the show, I’d appreciate it.

Thanks a lot!

Thanks again, and see you on Wednesday!

Adam

April Meeting Minutes

Don — Fri, 16 Apr 2010 16:29:40 +0000

We had a large turnout at the Meeting, including new Member Bernie – welcome. We had a good assortment of things on the show table including a first look at a new kit from Wingnut Wings.
Shaughan gave a demo on epoxy putty which was well done and well received – thanks, again Shaughan.
Members were reminded that the May Meeting is Swap Night – so, clean out your closets and make another Member happy!!

April Meeting

Don — Mon, 05 Apr 2010 21:21:11 +0000

Hi, folks – just a reminder of the regular meeting on Wednesday, April 14 at 7:00 (or before) at the Westmount Library. This months’ demo will be by Shaughan on Epoxy Putty. I have heard him speak on this subject and it’s a good one.

Best – Don
