THE MINUTES
by Bobby the Blue
October was a good meeting, despite the road flooding. Regardless, we had 23 members and one guest bringing in 16 models and 15 works in progress.
OCTOBER MEETING!!!
NOMINATIONS FOR OFFICERS: See what happens when the Prez and the Veep are both unable to make the October meeting? They got re-elected to their posts! Ha! Take that!
WORK IN PROGRESS NIGHT: We had a good cluster of models in various stages of construction and some useful words of wisdom. WIP night is always very educational!
SWAP NIGHT: It went much better this time around. More people brought stuff to sell, and other people brought home a bunch of it.

On the agenda: November
CONTEST NIGHT, 4TH QUARTER 2007: This is the final installment of the annual contest, so it’s your last chance to rake in some last minute votes before the final numbers for the year are crunched. Remember, this is the REGULAR contest. You know, the quarterly contest with six categories. Yeah, that one! Anything that hasn’t been in a regular quarterly contest will qualify.
SUPER RAFFLE: This is everyone’s favorite activity of the year. You got one super raffle ticket for each new model you brought in over the last year. We usually have over one hundred items in the super raffle so chances of winning are pretty good. If you have anything you’d like to donate for the super raffle, this is the meeting to do so! By the way, be sure your dues are paid up, or else you don’t get your raffle tickets.

November Meeting: Friday, 11/16/2007 at the Bergen Beach Sports Complex!
Theme contest alert!!!
It’s NOVEMBER!!!!
Before you know it December will be knocking on the door and the theme contest will be upon us! Remember, the December meeting is usually on the second Friday, which will be the 14th. Will you be ready? Now is a great time to get started for…
WE MEAN BUSINESS!!!
“WE MEAN BUSINESS” will be a theme contest honoring the memory of founding member Bert Berg. He’s remembered fondly as being a businessman, first and foremost. With that in mind, the sponsors (Frank C, Russ H, Jimmy M, Frank T, and your humble narrator) are bringing a theme contest all about PRODUCT PLACEMENT to the BPMS in December. Does anything else scream out capitalism more than the Christmas Season? With that, we’re asking the members to build something showing product placement. It can be real, eg: a jumbo jet with some markings from some airline, a race-car with sponsor labels, or you can invent something. We encourage the use of imagination! Since we are in the beginning stages, we may yet come up with some special awards, let’s say, for ingenuity. If you have any questions, feel free to contact any of the sponsors, we’ll be happy to assist!
We are also thinking of some special awards that may include the following: Funny Business, Monkey Business, Out of Business, Big Business, Small Business, Mom & Pop Business; Risky Business. Have fun with it!
