2008 Auction![]() By Greg Reynolds Help support club events and Hobby Expo 2008 by attending our annual auction at the Round Table Pizza across from Coddingtown Mall on Friday, January 11. This is our major fundraiser for the year. Proceeds support our many club functions such as the Hobby Expo, field trips, the club picnic, and the airshow make and take. The auction will feature hundreds of books, models, and hobby supplies, many still in shrink wrap. Viewing starts at 7pm, with the first item going up for bid shortly thereafter. Past auctions have always been a huge success, so bring a wad of cash and plan to stay late! All donations come from club members and friends of IPMS Santa Rosa. If you have lost interest in a few models or related hobby items, please consider donating them to the auction. This is a chance to support the club and clear off some shelf space without the hassle of Ebay. You can donate incomplete, started, or enhanced models, but please mark any condition issues ("started", "missing parts") or extra features ("after market PE included") on the outside of the box. This year's auction donations are off to a fine start. The picture above shows a very small portion of the models available. IPMS Santa Rosa would like to thank all of the contributors (so far!) to this year's auction including: Dr. Byram - 5 large boxes of models and reference books Elliot Tours - 1 large box of models Chris Zanella - a box of interesting "goodies" from Japan including Tamiya bread! Jack Riggar - 3 models Joyce Ricketts - 3 models Doug Dropeskey - 3 models and some hobby supplies Please note that many other members and friends of IPMS Santa Rosa anonymously contributed items to the auction. We sincerely appreciate the support of all contributers.
