As Dave mentioned this is our Divisions first RPM meet, Currently I have two confirmed Slots for clinics, talking to another gentelman tonight so hopefully we will have 3 slots filled, and worse case I have a clinic I can use to fill the 4th slot.  We also have some door prizes and will have a gentelmann that will be doing an all day presentation on weathering.  Our RPM meet will be free to the public, The size of the rpm meet will not be large like St Loius or Chicago this year but we have to start some where.

 

I will be posting a list of current clincs this week on our Division Facebook page

Mike Slater, our new Division Superintendent (and a very good modeler) wants to try something new for our first meeting of the 2019-2020 season.  He has gone to other RPM meets and wants to try out the concept here.  As of now I know nothing about presenters or topics but will try to find out what I can.
