Dave will be at the months meeting to discuss his event.

The Modelers exhibition scheduled for April 18th has evolved far beyond the original plan to have a small gathering of a few friends.  With a dozen, or more, modeling clubs from four states expressing interest in participating, it appears there will be over a hundred Modelers exhibiting at this fund raiser event.  All proceeds go to the Gary Sinise Foundation.
