Hello fellow modelers!
We would like to thank all of those who attended CALMEX XXVI on January 28, 2012.
While attendance was down from last year, that didn't hurt the quality of models on the
table, which was superb. Of course, our ladies out did themselves again this year with a
gumbo to die for.
As we said, attendance was down this year in comparison to years past. There were
54 modelers that entered 210 models. We did have 51 vendors tables and reports from the
vendors say that sales were very good. It is always important to support these people who
feed our wants and needs when it comes to our hobby.
As for the winners, here is a list of the "Best Of" winners.
A comprehensive list of category winners can be found here.
We are also pleased to announce that we sold enough raffle tickets to donate $150.00
to the Children's Miracle Network. This year's attendees also donated 47 models to Brooke
Army Medical Center in San Antonio, Texas. Cash donations at the donation station was
enough to by tools and supplies. Vendor Chuck Adams donated a large amount of paint
and some glue.
All said, it was another great contest and we look forward to seeing our friends at the
other fine contest hosted by the IPMS USA Region 6 clubs.
