Show Dates 2017
Having had several discussions over shows now, I've made a start on getting the SIG booked in to some for 2017. I'm going to edit and update this post as things develop so it may be a good idea to subscriber this post to stay up to date.

23rd April, Modelkraft, Milton Keynes. CONFIRMED
25th June, Coventry and Warwickshire show, Midland Air Museum. Booking form returned
6th August, Boscombe Down Aircraft Collection Show. **UPDATE** Had a reply from the organisers and they'd be delighted to have us display again.
13th August, IPMS Avon and Somerset, Thornbury Leisure Centre, South Gloucestershire. CONFIRMED
3rd September IPMS Chiltern Show (inc. Beds MAFVA), Biggleswade, Beds. CONFIRMED
16th September, Modelfest, Camberley, IPMS Farnborough. CONFIRMED

Wherever there's danger, wherever there's trouble, wherever there's important work to be done....I'll be somewhere else building a model!

Re: Show Dates 2017
Insurance - provided that EVERYONE who puts models on your table is an IPMS member and has full non-lapsed membership on the day of the event, then they are covered under an IPMS blanket cover. At our local club we have been going through this very finely as to how it affects us. Hence another benefit of IPMS membership. Otherwise the best cover we got on years we paid as a club was around £200 mark
Contact someone on the committee and find it out for yourself etc which is what I would suggest - but it will be ok

Re: Show Dates 2017
That's pretty much what I figured Chris but I've contacted the museum for clarity in any case . I don't know when I'll get a reply. Telephoning them didn't get an answer. Furthermore, as the museum are the ones charging for the show, insurance liability falls to them.
I am wondering if there are elements at the Tank Museum trying to kill this show off before it gets started. I'll ping an email to the IPMS for further clarification.

Re: Show Dates 2017
Boscombe Down is confirmed as 6 August. They are sending out paperwork and taking enquiries. Can get you a number and email if needed.
I am going to try and sort out my weekends soon for next year and prioritise my time ... it is also Fastnet year and that starts same day.

Re: Show Dates 2017
Thanks for the info Chris. I'll get in touch with my contact from last time. I did send a message after the last show saying we'd like to be invited back so I hope they paid attentionchrism wrote:Boscombe Down is confirmed as 6 August.
