JayC Posted September 21, 2009 Posted September 21, 2009 I know this thread is a little old, but here is one more Michigander on the forum! I'm up in the Thumb in Harbor Beach. With fall and winter fast approaching, this area is emptying out of all the campers and summer vacationers.
Rob1 Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 I'm moving to the Traverse City area in a few months. Any modelers or clubs up there? Rob
Albert Moore Posted October 6, 2009 Posted October 6, 2009 There is a small club called Great Lakes Scale Modelers based in Traverse City (I was a member from 1994 until last year). When you get to Traverse City and get set up, stop in the local hobby shop (Trains & Things Hobbies on Front Street) and they'll have contact info for the P.I.C. of the club. Cheers, Albert
