May was another great meeting. We had 25 members and 0 guests who brought in 21 models, of which 19 were for the contest. Despite Prez Don and your humble narrator both being out, and bad traffic, Veep Charlie Nelson did a splendid job of running things at nicely-attended meeting.

May Meeting

KIT SALE: Many members brought kits to sell, which means other members got to go home with some good deals. Nice showing. We invite members to feel free to bring in items they want to sell anytime. We have plenty of space.

PARTS BOX: Guys brought in spare parts, too!

RAFFLE: We had a raffle. Thanks to Jeff for finding new items to mix things up and keep it fresh.

CONTEST NIGHT: The bulk of the models on the tables were for the annual contest. Nice showing! We also had the members tell the group about their entries.

NOREASTCON: We had a discussion regarding the BPMS presence at the Noreastcon out on Long Island. Joe Bergman gave his Lighting Models discussion there. I’m sure there were many happy modelers in attendance for that one! The BPMS sponsored a trophy package and the following members took home awards: Nestor, Tomasz, Charlie, Joe, Costa, Kamila and Katrina. Well done and congrats!

40TH ANNIVERSARY LUNCHEON: We had a discussion about the luncheon. We should have something interesting at the next meeting regarding the anniversary. Stay tuned!

THAT 70s THEME: It’s here! Are you ready for it? Find out all about this theme contest HERE.

BBQ NIGHT: It’s summertime and what better way to celebrate than with a BBQ? The club will be providing burgers, hot dogs, fixin’s, cold salads, and soft drinks. Just bring yourself, your appetite and $6 and you’re all set! If you want to bring extra goodies (chips, desserts, etc.) for the feast, feel free to do so!
