Happy New Year to you all!
We hope you all had a happy, successful and safe break over the Christmas period. It’s time to remind you of our first ACTSMS meeting for 2010, which will be held on Wednesday 20 January in the Aegean Room at the Hellenic Club in Woden.
As usual, the meeting will start at 7.30pm with a short admin session; we now have a well developed entertainment program for 2010 and we need to talk to all of you about a number of upcoming events, as well as other Committee business which will affect all of us.
January will be a month for assessments, so bring along all those models which you have completed over the holiday period and have them reviewed by your peers.
In keeping with our historically relaxed program for our January meetings given the holiday period, this month we are looking to hear about and see those models which you are planning to complete during 2010. We’d be especially delighted to see any kits or other modelling goodies which you received for Christmas and to be able to chat about your plans. So, this will be a free ranging evening of modelling discussions, talking about references, camouflage schemes, paint sources and so on. Bring along anything related to what you plan to build this year and talk about it with your fellow club members. More importantly, we’d like to hear your ideas for themes at the major shows this year (including our tenth anniversary Scale ACT, Malkara and so on) and what you would be able to build in support of those events. So, bring along your Kittyhawk Cup, Sentinel Shield or Maritime Medal entries too – let us see how you’re going!
