Summer Theme Contest: NASA 50th Anniversary of the Moon Landing
NASA
50th
Anniversary of the Moon Landing
It’s
been 50 years since man set foot on the moon. What better way to celebrate the
momentous occasion than with a theme contest? Simply build something NASA / US
Space Program related that is real or hypothetical. No Soviets. No Red Bull. No
Amazon. No Sci-Fi.

END OF
AN ERA:
With the close of 2018, so was the completion of the term BPMS President Joe
Bergman. As a president who led from the
front, he challenged the group to build more and we surpassed the 300 models
barrier in 2018! We thanked Joe for his efforts and presented him with a plaque
for his service to the club.
On the agenda: JANUARY
NEW
REGIME: We have two new faces in
the front of the room this month. Our new President will be Tom Knoll and the
Vice President will be Tom Govia! Let’s welcome them to the job with another
banner year!
2019 Model Pledge: Looks like we got this
working nicely now! Bring in an unbuilt model between January and APRIL 2017 to
declare as your pledge model. Please have it finished for OCTOBER 2018, for a
display. After October you may bring back your pledge for the November meeting
for the last contest of the year. For your efforts you get an additional FIVE
Super Raffle tickets for completing your pledge! Sweet! Easy enough!
KIT SALE:
Bring kits to sell and cash to buy with. There’s no tab at this bar!
JULY THEME: We have a commitment!
