A heart felt thanks was extended to Brianna Childress, Ken Childress, Lloyd King, Jeff Griffin, and Josh Swift for the time they volunteered to the program and the club was thanked for the donation of money for model kits.

Any club members who would like to assist should contact Ron.

Pete Harwell M-47 Memorial Build
There were four members who participated in the build and offered eight models in various stages of completion, including a futuristic hover tank! The completed models were judged by club members in attendance. Daris Long won 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place with his rendition of Jordanian, US Army, and US Marine M-47s. Way to go Daris! I am sure All contributions were well done. Pete would have been well pleased with the number and quality of the M-47 entries.
Swap Meet
A number of members brought model for swap or purchase and a good time was had by all.
Contest CommitteeMembers of the Contest Committee met at the conclusion of the meeting. A report of the current progress by the committee will be presented to the club at the next club meeting.
