February was another great BPMS meeting. We had 25 members and one guest who brought in 36 models for an impressive first contest of the year!

February Meeting
CONTEST NIGHT: We had our first installment of the BPMS annual contest. Didn’t we just hand out last years’ awards? Yep! Now we start all over with a clean slate! There was some gorgeous work on the tables for fierce competition.

SHOW US YOUR TOOL: This vulgar sounding activity is more of a simple BPMS tradition. Several members had some very useful tools, supplies, and ideas. The group was treated to an educational evening. THANK YOU to all the guys who brought in something to share.

THANK YOU MR. PRESIDENT: The club honored Don Illjes for his years of service as BPMS President. Thank you for a job well done, sir!

TROOP SUPPORT: With Hugh going into retirement Jimmy Tissot volunteered to take over the role as Wounded Warrior Project liaison. Thanks!

PHOTO ROSTER: Hugh can provide the files and write up the process I use in PowerPoint and PhotoManager to put the pages together. Can anyone take this job over? Contact Bobby or Jeff at the meeting.

MOSQUITOCON: We got a request to sponsor a trophy package. However, due to problems members had last year getting the awards they won at the show the group voted against sponsoring this time around.

On the agenda: March
DECAL SWAP NIGHT: Pretty simple, bring in decals to trade, sell or just giveaway. I think the club has a communal decal box somewhere. You never know what markings you might find!

FAVORITE MODEL: Every modeler has that kit he LOVES. Built or unbuilt, bring it and to show the group and tell us why you love it!
