Greetings All!
2007 is well under way, and our last two meetings have seen new faces making an appearance, and more importantly, an increase in the number of models on the table.
Our February meeting at the Perley was well attended, with three newcomers. Welcome! It was basically a multi-media night, with Paul Bornn sharing some pics from the AMPS East show, as well as the Hobby Gryffon show. Wayne Giles also shared some photos from his recent trip to the Philippines.
On the announcement front, please keep in mind that their is an upcoming show and contest in Hamilton on Sunday, February 25, 2007. The show and contest will take place at the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum, and is being put on by IPMS Hamilton. For more details, please visit the "Coming Events" tab at www.warplane.com, or drop Tony Hayes an e-mail at khayes7@cogeco.ca.
Also as a reminder that the annual club auction will take place Sunday, March 11, 2007. Details can be found on the website forums.
Our next meeting will take place Wednesday, March 7. Paul Bornn will be giving a presentation on weathering armour subjects. The contest for the evening will be "Anything Ottawa". Even if it doesn't have an Ottawa theme, bring it in, and put it on display. As for myself, I'll have at least one aircraft to display, now that the Wyvern you saw at the February meeting is complete. Rumour has it, I'll also bring in a treaded thingy I've been working on these past few days. Yes, you read that right; I'm actually building something that doesn't have wings. Perhaps Dana's past leadership is rubbing off on me…
Enjoy the chilly weather, and I hope to see you at the March meeting.
Cheers!
Kevin Smith
President, IPMS Ottawa
