Apologies from your webmaster that’s been, simply put, sick as hell for the past week or so. Therefore, everything is coming to the website late. First up are photos from the February meeting, courtesy of Martin Quinn, and the February newsletter, courtesy of our editor, Bill Schroeter.

Photos from the January 2018 Meeting
Martin Quinn sent along these photos from the first 2018 meeting of NJIPMS. Thanks, Martin!
December 2017 Meeting
The annual club party was held during the December 2017 meeting of NJIPMS. Good turnout, good food, lots of models on the table. Check the January newsletter for the 1st through 3rd place Builders of the Year, as well as the Models of the Year.
October 2017 Meeting
Friday the 13th saw a good meeting of the NJIPMS group. Many models on the tables, along with club-sponsored pizza and open bar.
Remember: Yearly dues are due and being collected. Talk to Vince about renewing.
September Meeting and Newsletter
The September meeting had a good turnout. Primary Colors was the theme of the monthly contest, with several entries. The winners were Mike Terre with a 1/72nd scale Ki-9, and Stan Stankewicz with a 1/25th scale 2014 Camaro. Well done, guys.
Also, this month’s newsletter, the MosquitoGram, has been uploaded to the Newsletter page.
JerseyFest this Weekend!
This coming weekend is JerseyFest at the Newark Airport Marriot hotel:

This a great sci-fi and figure modeling show. Well worth checking out. The only caveat I will give is that parking is EXPENSIVE, like $44 a day, so carpool or mass-transit it.
May 2017 Meeting
Friday May 12th, 2017, saw a very well attended meeting of NJIPMS at our usual Nights of Columbus location. There was no set theme for the evening, so an eclectic mix of ships, aircraft, sci-fi, figures, and lots of in-progress builds, filled the tables.
The next meeting is set for June 9th, same time and place. The theme will be “The Pacific: 1942”, so dig out your best and bring it along.
January 2017 Meeting Report
The first meeting of 2017 was held on a Friday the 13th, but any superstitions did nothing to keep away the members. We had one of the best turnouts in recent memory, with lots of new kits on display, and many participants in the “Out of the Box” contest. Mike Terre and Marc Rocca took top honors in the contest, with their Harriet Lane and MIG-31 builds.
September Meeting: Sci-Fi Night
Another great turnout for Sci-Fi night this year. Everything from old kits to new kits to scratch-builds filled the table. The food and open bar were a big hit, as usual (attendance was very high!). The club meeting covered various items, including information on who will attend the upcoming Region 2 and MarauderCon shows this fall (information on both on the Upcoming Events page).
Next month is Russian Night. Get your red stars ready…
August Meeting
The August meeting was held on Friday the 12th, with a good attendance. The contest was Civilian Night, and Dan Spera took the honors with his Roden Mohawk in 1/48th scale.
The IPMS Region 2 show in Virginia Beach and MarauderCon were both discussed, as was various other club business. We’re meeting next month for Sci-Fi night, and dinner will be served!
