RVIPMS Show, Salem, Virginia August 11, 2018
Posted by Gamera on Tuesday, July 31, 2018 5:11 PM

Hope this is the right place for this.

Our show is at the Salem Civic Center on the north end of Roanoke Virginia in two weeks- August 11, 2018.

It's not the biggest show and probably not the best. But we've had one of the most smoothest running judging and awards ceremonies around with a good selection of vendors and a great raffle table!!!

If you can make it drop by and say 'hi', I'll be helping at the raffle table most of the day. 

More information including catagories and directions here:

Figured there wouldn't be anyone here within driving range but thought I'd go ahead and post it anyhow.

It is three hours from me, I be be able to come. Unfortunatly the link directs me to a dead website, so I do not have much information.

Dutchman: Thanks for the interest. I don't know what's going on. The site was up when I posted it. Hopefully they'll get it up soon. What a great time for the site to go out.... Sad

This is the front in any case, I'll see about getting a catagory list.

The Salem Civic Center isn't hard to find, it's in the middle of a residental area not far from the Lewis Gale hospital.

As I remember it's ten dollars admission. I don't remember how much to enter models.

Cool, I'd love to see it in person!

As said I'll probably be at the raffle table most of the day. I'll be the skinny guy wearing a Hawaiian shirt, the other guys that normally help out there are kinda on the chubby side.

I had a great time yesterday, got to see some of the best builds that I have seen, and picked up a lot of information to use on future builds. I took pictures of almost everything, and will post a link after they upload.
