Announcement from Region 9 Coordinator Chris Bucholtz
July 15, 2008
Three things to quickly update you on...
1. Reno High Rollers Contest Ð not in the listing until now, but still on.
Doug Summers reminds me that the High Rollers' event is on for the Desert Heights Elementary School near Stead Airport in Reno on September 6, the weekend before the air races. Go to their very attractive website at http://renohighrollers.com/ to get the skinny!
2. Dragon Lady Brings the Booty
Harold Osburn asks to let you all know that the value of the stuff in their raffle has now exceeded $2500 including airbrushes, compressors and many very nice models. Also, the club will also be hosting a car show outside this year (as you recall - last year there was a display of military vehicles). So, you may get a shot at some great prizes, see some great autos, and have a great time in Yuba City! For more details, check out their Myspace page at http://www.myspace.com/ipmsdragonlady.
3. A New Contact in Iraq
MSG Brian Allen, our point man with the Baghdad Model Club, will be leaving Iraq to return stateside this Saturday to be treated for some medical issues. SFC Steven Delong will assume MSG Allen's old role.
"SFC Delong has been with me since taking over the hobby club here in Baghdad and will continue to serve as POC," writes Allen. "You can address any correspondence or donations to him at: steven.delong@iraq.centcom.mil or mail at:
0D
SFC Steven Delong
HQ, MNC-I (FSC)
18th Airborne Corps
APO, AE 09342
If you have already sent donations under my name they will continue to arrive safely and the mail room has been briefed to forward any packages to SFC Delong.
We have been fortunate here in B-dad as new, highly motivated members have come onboard and will also be available to help SFC Delong with club donations and shipping to our numerous contacts. I personally want to thank all of our contributors for your kind support and donations that you have sent during my short tenure. This is the first time I have seen such support from back home in my 20 year career and makes me truly proud to serve the American people. Thank you ever so much!"
That is all...for now.
