So do you provide limo service to pick up FSM members? LOL! Nah - as much as I'd love to be there but its' too far a drive for me.

Hi Marc, as usual our club will be there. Haven't gotten all the answers back yet but I think we'll have at least 5 of the seven members there. We might need a larger vehicle to carry all of us and all our entries. Plus, we have to leave room for all the raffle wins and vendor buys we usually bring home with us.

Looking forward to another great show (as usual). See you there.

I keep hitting "escape", but I'm still here.

Here's a noticed posted elsewhere (edited as needed) by one of our club members. Hope to see you there.

All FSM members are invited to attend New Jersey IPMS's Mosquitocon Model Contest & Flea Market on Saturday April 4 2015.

The Wayne PAL Hall is located on PAL Drive which is accessible just off of Route 23, about a mile or so north of Route 80-take the 1st exit as you head north on Rt.23 from Rt.80.

Fees:

Adult Registraton - $15 (Unlimited Model Entries)
Junior registration (under 16 years old) - $5

Adult Walk-In - $10
Under 12 - free

Show Theme - END GAME marking the 70th Anniversary of the End of WWII and 40th Anniversary of the End of the Vietnam War.

Why come to Mosquitocon, you ask ?

Well, here's just a few reasons:

*It's the largest annual model hobby event in Jersey and one of largest on the east coast.
*Attendees state that it's the most fun model show they have ever been to.
*NJIPMS's show staff (basically the entire membership) are seasoned professionals, with 23 annual Mosquitocon shows and 3 IPMS USA Regionals under their belts
*Mosquitocon boasts more vendors and better vendors than most IPMS USA Regional shows.
*Venue lighting is superb
*Food is very good - TRY THE BEST OF JERSEY CUISINE - TAYLOR HAM & EGG ON A HARD ROLL for Breakfast!
*Number of models competing meets or exceeds the amount that show up at most IPMS USA Regionals
*Modelers attend our show from the 4 points of the compass in America as well as from Europe, South America and Asia
*We have great looking awards
*Our Raffle Prizes are better than that offered at most IPMS USA Regional shows - we even have a couple of top of the line airbrushes this year for prizes.
*We have a Make and take for younger modelers - bring the kids!

For the 2015 Show, you can log onto our webshttp://www.njipms.org and take look at the show details, directions, addresses, 2015 dowloadable show flyer and model entry forms, list of categories, list of special awards, rules and other pertinent info.
