BraileScaleDon Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 Three Rivers IPMS in Pittsburgh is hosting a Regional Convention, March 25 and 26th, at the Airport Hoiday Inn. If you're not familiar with IPMS events, a Regional Convention is a "super-sized" show that draws more models and vendors from a much larger area than a typical one day show, and our club goes all out to make it a good show. Everyone is welcome - you don't have to be an IPMS member to enter (although you do get a few bucks off registration if you are a member). BTW, the show uses an "Open Judging" system that doesn't have a fixed number of awards per category, so good builds can be recognized regardless of what you build. For more info check out our website: http://www.tripms.org/ or contact me here. Hope to see you there!

BraileScaleDon Posted March 7, 2011 Author Posted March 7, 2011 I just talked with our Vendor Chairman - John Boettger (sp?) has booked vendor tables at the show. If you haven't run into John at a show yet, he has an awesome selection of automotive kits - whenever I meet up with him I either buy a new kit I've been looking for or something I didn't even know existed. And if he doesn't have it, he can usually get it. The show is just 3 weeks away... Hope to see you there! Don Schmitz
jeffs396 Posted March 26, 2011 Posted March 26, 2011 Spent about 4 hours in the vendor area here today...quite a selection of kits, new & old, great prices for most of them. Bought three older kits I've been looking for that were sealed inside, for $22!!! If you're within an hour or so of this location, it's in your best interest to check it out tomorrow! Mr. Yost was there with all of his perfectly painted bodies, too! Not alot on the show tables today, but they'll be full tomorrow!
