Hmmm , interesting, that's 5.3 models per attendant.

Anyhow, sounds good over all.

Christian, we always have more models than modelers. One gentleman from Houston usually brings around 25-30 with him. Our entry fee for adults is $10 for the first model, $1 for each additional model; Juniors (13-18yrs) $5.00 unlimited entries, Preteens - Free. Our biggest expense is renting the tables, usually 65-70. Our venue is free because we donate to Children's Miracle Network. The facility is owned by the local public recreation district. Second biggest expense is awards.
Nice job on that Kenny, got the right people in the right places doing the right things. I don't think I've ever seen TV coverage at a show I've been to.

Wow Kenny Nice turn out ... I'm sure an old forum friend of mine was there, Warren something does a lot of SR-71's and the like, I would like to start something like this in my neck of the woods. any pointer's one How to get started would be appreciated. Money maybe the biggest trouble, but I would be doing a charity as a sponsor also ... I guess this is IPMS, so I would start there I recon ... Oh and great Movie clip, you did real good. :salute :woohoo: :drinks
