THE MINUTES

by Bobby the Blue

July was an educational meeting with the Paper Modeling Clinic. We clocked in 29 members and 2 guests who brought in 21 models, for a busy meeting.

July Meeting

TWILIGHT ZONE THEME CONTEST: And the winners are:

1st: Bob E - Uncle Simon

2nd: Frank C - The Brain Center at Whipple’s

3rd: Ed J - Thirty Fathom Grave

We have to thank everyone who took the time to participate and build for this fun theme contest. We also must extend an extra special THANK YOU to the sponsors; Don I, Joe B, and Russ H; who gave us a fun theme to build for!

PAPER MODELING CLINIC: We have some very talented members in the realm of Paper Modeling. The combined efforts of Charlie N, Tomasz K, and Nestor M put together a very thorough and informative clinic about anything you ever wondered about and everything could ever need to get started in this growing part of the modeling hobby. THANKS GUYS!

On the agenda: August

BPMS ANNUAL CONTEST – 3Q2011: Where has the time gone? We’re already up to the third quarterly BPMS contest. You know? The third installment of the annual contest. You may bring in anything that hasn’t been in a quarterly contest, including entries in the Twilight Zone Theme Contest for this. Be sure to fill out your contest entry forms, without proper paperwork you can’t be judged. The votes from the quarterly contests get crunched together for the Annual Contest Awards Ceremony in DECEMBER.

PIZZA NIGHT: This is possibly the biggest event of the year. PIZZA NIGHT! There have been many traditions around pizza night: the Cockrums' onion pizza, Captain Bart’s red jumpsuit, and your humble narrator killing a whole pie each of the past 3 years. All you have to do to get in on the fun is be a member in good standing. So that means that your dues must be paid up, and no guests. Done. Have fun!

Our next meeting will be on

AUGUST 19, 2011

Same time, same place!

See you at the Bergen Beach Sports Complex!
