That is almost one month to the day before MosquitoCon, so have any last minute questions ready, and decide where you want to volunteer during the day of the show.

February Meeting
Friday the 13th turned out pretty well for the club meeting. The long anticipated Tin Can Group Build wrapped up, with Marc Rocca taking top honors for his destroyer build. Marc also demonstrated using EZ Line as a super-fine rigging material by showing how to strip it down to smaller individual fibers. There was also a find display of other kits on the table, everything from Century Series fighters to in-progress plank-on-frame sailing ships.
