BULLETIN AUGUST 2017
BPMS
Bulletin
by Bobby B2 Blue Pokorny
JULY meeting brought out a healthy number of members despite being fine summer weather. We had 25 members and no guests who brought in 15 models.
July Meeting
BASIC SKILLS – RESIN CASTING: Have you ever lost a part? Have you ever wished you had a couple extra road wheels for your tank? Have you ever built a MODEL?!?! Well, then you have probably had occasion to need some part duplicated. Angelo Takos gave us a very detailed discussion on casting parts without breaking the bank. Gordon and a couple other members chimed in as well.
HVHMG: The group voted to sponsor a trophy package for their show in October. More details at: www.hvhmg.org
PEACEFUL PLASTIC THEME CONTEST: With Star Wars in the books we can look forward to the December theme contest: PEACEFUL PLASTIC. Find contest details HERE. Sponsored by Russ Holcomb, Tom Knoll, and Tim Greeman.
Raffle: We had another fun raffle this month. We’ll likely have another for August.
On the agenda: AUGUST
PIZZA NIGHT: Possibly one of the top favorite BPMS annual activities. PIZZA! Just be paid up to date on your dues and you can eat all you like. We ask members to please avoid bringing guests for this meeting.
CONTEST NIGHT – 3Q17: The year is just moving along. It’s time for the third installment of the quarterly contest. This would be a good time to rack up some more votes for your annual totals. Remember, if you built something for the theme contest that has never been to a quarterly contest before, feel free to bring it back!
