I think the best thing all of us can do is to get the word out about the show and encourage new attendees to go.Scale Model Souphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02551604870480525965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-160904620216483498.post-6393088663708790012016-10-16T18:08:19.219-07:002016-10-16T18:08:19.219-07:00It is a really good, albeit, smallish show.

I wish I good do more than just attend and participate, but my friends that build already go. Maybe advertise to non modelers? ...and by the way, thank you sincerely for including the photo of my BTR-80 at the page top ! I'm flattered ! thank you, william carls Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15624404415839966365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-160904620216483498.post-74564580143703005522015-10-16T16:51:17.134-07:002015-10-16T16:51:17.134-07:00Sounds like a contest I attended about 7 or 8 year...Sounds like a contest I attended about 7 or 8 years ago. It was a lengthy drive so I decided not to go back the next year.Scale Model Souphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02551604870480525965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-160904620216483498.post-24771844804746173082015-10-15T04:32:44.469-07:002015-10-15T04:32:44.469-07:00Although entries can be registered on both the Fri...Although entries can be registered on both the Friday and Saturday and vendors are in attendance both days, I think that many would still consider this event to be nothing more than a one day show and the numbers are probably an indication of this. However, if you think 200-300 entries is a disappointing figure then try dealing with less than 100 entries and only 6 traders for a similar show that we have in my neck of the woods. What we find is that these kind of competitions are used by modellers to show off their latest builds prior to committing them to a more major event.ReneDKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08690697721171095524noreply@blogger.com
