South Devon Model Extravaganza 2010
We are pleased to announce the first ever South Devon Model Extravaganza, to be held at Newton Abbot Racecourse on Saturday 22nd May 2010, starting at 10am.
The show will include exhibits covering a huge range of modelling activities, from plastic scale aircraft, ships, figures and military vehicles, through war gaming, live steam and model railways, to slot cars and radio control aircraft and tanks in action. There will truly be something for everyone! We’ll also have lots of trade stands offering kits, train sets, and all types of modelling items for sale. Visitors will get all this for the low entry price of £3 per adult and just £1 each for the children.
Many exhibits will be located under cover, away from whatever the weather may bring, and other displays like radio-control aircraft may be viewed from the seating areas in the grandstand. A variety of refreshments will be available for purchase throughout the day.
The Racecourse is just 10 minutes walk from the centre of historic Newton Abbot in the heart of beautiful South Devon, and local buses stop right outside the gate. For those using sat-nav, just enter TQ12 3AF and when you arrive you’ll find an ample supply of off-road FREE parking. For those who might want to combine the day out with a bit of shopping, a supermarket is just across the road and a retail park is nearby.
Paul Thompson, for the organisers, said “This is the first time such a variety of modelling-related exhibits has been brought together in this part of the country. We’ve had a great response from local clubs as well as exhibitors from further afield, and we’re hoping to make this an annual event. It promises to be a great day out - come along and bring the family.”
