Funkster Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 I went to the Wisconsin model car site and registered, but nobody has responded! Are there any clubs in Wisconsin?
wisdonm Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 There's a Wisconsin model car site??? There are three or four clubs that I know of. One in the Milwaukee area, I think it's called Auto Modelers Group. There is another in the Fox valley, not sure what it's called. I'd have to research the others.
MikeMc Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 I'm from Wisconsin................but I left 17 years ago for warmth.....
Casey Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 I'm not a member, but the AMG club 'site has almost no traffic and little to no info. IIRC, they meet on the first Friday of every month, but I forget where. You could call Model Empire in West Allis and ask them, as the AMG has a display cabinet there with info about the club.
High octane Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 Terry, the AMG club meets on the first Friday of every month from 6:30 to 9:30pm at the Waterford(stone?) Bank on 27th Street in Oak Creek. PM me and I can get you the exact addy. I've been a member for over 6 years and it's a great club. We also do the Milwaukee NNL every April not too far from you.
Green Duster Posted April 27, 2011 Posted April 27, 2011 Hi, I'm from northern Wi. Rhinelander. We had a club up here but it fell apart a few years back. The Glue Crew is out of Wausau. About 60 mi. south of me. Anybody on here from northern Wi.?

High octane Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 Terry, You should probably e-mail Rick at: rallen@sharontelephone.com and he can tell you all about the club. I hope this helps.

About 60 mi. south of me. Anybody on here from northern Wi.?....I visit Tomahawk every year. My son has a cabin there. I always take a model with me to work on, as a matter of fact I will be there this time next week I hope. Small World sometimes.
The70judgeman Posted October 26, 2012 Posted October 26, 2012 I'm in Milwaukee...for now. My wife and I are planning on buying a house within the next year. Gonna miss my frequent trips to 2 major hobby stores within 2 miles of where I'm at now.
High octane Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 A friend of mine and I stopped & shopped at the Model Empire today in West Allis, as that is my favorite hobby shop when it comes to model cars, and has been for a long time. After leaving there we took a spin up to Brookfield and enjoyed some wings for lunch at Hooters.
Phirewriter Posted February 10, 2017 Posted February 10, 2017 The Auto Modelers Group out of Milwaukee has a Facebook page that is updated often. The old website was abandoned due to the fact the guy running it passed away some time ago.https://m.facebook.com/AutoModelersGroup/There are pictures posted after every monthly meeting, lots of great builds to look at!
High octane Posted February 20, 2017 Posted February 20, 2017 For those livin' in southern Wisconsin and care to venture into Illinois, there is a great model car swap meet this Sunday the 26th at the DuPage County Fairgrounds in Wheaton, Illinois from 9 a.m. 'til 2 p.m. and the admission is still only 5 bucks.
High octane Posted February 22, 2017 Posted February 22, 2017 Here's the flyer from the upcoming show THIS Sunday...................................
High octane Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 This show is less than two weeks away and we're expecting another great turnout and hopefully 1000 models on the display tables, so c'mon down and bring some of your builds also. There'll be club displays, a giant raffle, a DJ playing some tunes, and there's plenty of restaurants just down the street.
