Hi everyone,

The next meeting for the Ft. Crook IPMS Chapter is Wednesday, October 20th , 630 PM, at the Natural Resources District Headquarters Building at Wehrspann Lake.

It’s kit auction time!!!!

You can bring 5 kits, or 5 kit bundles ( a bunch of kits bundled up) . Put your name and your starting bid on the kit. A Word of advice, if you try to have a high starting price on the kit, you will hear crickets. Rule of thumb that I use, start with a low bid. Don’t bring something and have a starting bid of $30, or $50, etc. Bidding will increase by 50 cents up to $10. After $10, the bidding will increase by dollar increments. The club will keep 10 percent of the money!!

Don Joy will keep tabs of what is being bought and sold. So, look in your stash and see if there is anything you have that you may not get to for a long time or something you can part with.

We will have nominations for officers for 2022. I am not going to be president another year. We also have nominations for member of the year.

In addition, think of contests we want to have in 2022. We can either have the contests we were going to have (which goes back to 2020) or we can vote for new ones.

No works in progress this month and no raffle due to the kit auction.

Scott will also have a brief Nationals update.

The next business meeting is Thursday, October 28th at the Sump Library in Papillion.

That’s all for now. Bring kits to the auction!

Your Prez,

Brian Smith
