East Riding of Yorkshire Model Show, 6th September 2015
« on: April 30, 2015, 09:49:09 PM »
Hi All,

Well, just to let you know that the planning and applications for our show for this year are well underway.

So far we have already filled over 90% of the tables available for displays and over 50% of Traders display space booked. Those reading this and wanting space, please get in touch on modedriffshow@btinternet.com as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.

The new revamped venue has been finished, and looks very good. This year in addition to plastic scale models and all the associated traders, we will be having R/C aircraft and ship models, and also 16mm steam gauge railway display. There will be a boating pool for the ship models and an area for a R/C flying display.

An onsite meeting is due in the next few weeks to finalise placements, PA system, parking, etc.

More updates will be posted here as they are available.

I hope my next is always better

Hi Kiteman,

I have a very good response from Revell. I have sent you a private email with further details.
I am pleased to say all is falling into place.

Crikey, great stuff.  I'm very glad to see the inclusion of boats, R/C and railways too as it all goes to attracting a wide selection of public which is people through the door = entry fees = healthy accounts, but more importantly, increases our public profile on the World's modelling stage.  Did I pick up that we will have a "proper" PA this time?  No disrespect to Andy's little council rig but it's not up to the job in the size venue we have.

I admire your gift for organisation Kevin and appreciate the thought that goes into it all.  Count me in as your trouble shooter and runner on the weekend too as it's important for you to try to relax and enjoy yourself on the event itself.  Hopefully all members will join in on helping our own club display look a whole lot better than last year's show for the icing on the cake.  Tres excitement!!!

Thanks Wizzel,

Yes, a PA system is due to be in by end of June in the Rix Pavilion. So it should be better than previous years, but we must not forget that without Andy (and Chris of Driffield Town Council) that we would have had nothing in the past.

As to be being my 'Runner and Troubleshooter' order your running shoes now....................
But, hopefully they won't be needed.

That is wonderful news.  Of course, all this goes on in the background while we are getting on with our own lives, so a big thanks to you now Kev.  As long as everyone gets them leaflets displayed to promote the show and we get the public through the door, it'll be another great success!
