I just found out that StarFest 2020  Denver has been postponed. We have a Sc-fi model show there.  A new time is TBD.  It's a pretty big deal.  The actors who players Riker and Data are scheduled to be there.

In case anyone is interested, here's the link to the IPMS Calendar of Events.  Links to model show club websites.

PS> Check the link to the Club Websites for updated information as the Calendar doesn't always list events that have been canceled.

I see AtlantaCon in Marietta, GA has been canceled.  I have seen no word of the IPMS Region 3 event here in Anniston being canceled... so far.

I was just informed that my clinic appointment in Dallas was cancled, so car rental, plane cancellations. Now a convention my wife and I were to attend this weekend is kaput as well. 

 

 

Thank goodness Steve that you didnt' have to go there.  My co-worker was in the Dallas/Fort Worth airport Saturday and it was complete kaos with people being shuffled in from international flights and waiting to be screened.  He was nose to elbow with people in the line to exit the terminal.  

I too have to cancel plans to fly up to see my mom this week.  I did have the added travel insurance this time and the airline is beeing cool about rescheduling.

The way flights are drying up, MC wouldn't have had one to climb on anyway.

Oregon just shut down dine in eateries for 4 weeks.  Carry out and delivery only.  25 person max gathering and suggesting 10 max

Building a kit from your stash is like cutting a head off a Hydra, two more take it's place.

Steve, 

Take care of yourself, sir!

I just got word the IPMS Regional here in Anniston has been "postponed".  No word on a date as the office was closed and a new date has not been set.  Guess this will be true for most model shows, unless someone wants to hold a "virtual" one.  Big Smile

Nope.  You missed it, below my avatar.  I'm from one of the other four commonwealths in the Union.

MosquitoCon has been postponed now as well, to August 22.
