• The originally planned October 15th High Plains Contest is now scheduled for November 5th and confirmed with Michael.  Looking for sponsors from other clubs for trophies 

New Business: 

 • An “official” club Facebook group will be created. It will adhere to the same content direction as the website per the bylaws, under the direction of the club president. A vote was called for by the president. Motion approved. 

 • Art presented a flyer for a train show in Greeley, Sat April 23, 9am-5pm. The Granite Mountain Railway is located at 701 Terry St. Longmont 80501 - This is an amazing layout controlled by an actual railroad switchboard and a multitude of operators. 

• Car show at Hobby Town Westminster - Saturday Noon - 4pm 9120 Wadsworth Blvd. • Looking to start it up to dinner after meetings again. Please bring you ideas and appetites. 

• Next Month is the annual club auction.  After seeing how many models members have in their collections (some in the 1000s)...per the email question by Paublo, I would expect members have models their collection that will never be built. (I brought 5 last time with only 135 models in my collection) Don’t be that person who comes to the potluck and only brings a fork...

 • A motion made and vote for, per the direction of the club president, to approve Tomasz as our webmaster for 2022. Motion approved. 

Model of the month: Chad's Italeri 1/12 Alfa Romeo 2300c Monza (see below)
