MosquitoCon 2007 is coming!!! As with the previous year's show, we have rented both sides of the Wayne (NJ) Police Athletic League (PAL) Hall just off of Route 23, about a mile or so north of Route 80 (take the 1st exit).

Why come to MosquitoCon? Well, here's just a few reasons:
* It's the largest annual model hobby event in Jersey
* Attendees state that it's the most fun model show they ever been to
* NJIPMS's show staff (basically the entire membership) are seasoned professionals, with 16 annual shows under their belts - 2007 will be show No.17
* Mosquitocon boasts more vendors/better vendors than most IPMS USA Regional shows. Iron Shipwright will be returning this year as a vendor!
* Lighting in the model room is superb
* Number of models competing meets or exceeds the amount that show up at most IPMS USA Regionals
* Modelers attend our show from the 4 points of the compass in America as well as from Europe, South America and Asia
* We have great looking award plaques

This year the show theme will be Made in New Jersey.

We may still have some vendor tables left - most times they are sold out. E-mail Ron Dobrzelecki at [email protected] for vendor table info.

Head over to the NJ/IPMS website for full details. You'll also find a show flyer and model entry forms, the latter of which we encourage show attendees to fill out ahead of time. Show flyer has directions, list of categories, list of special awards, rules and other pertinent info.

Here's a shot of last year's Best Ship and Best in Show, Dan Kaplan's fantastic IJN Light Cruiser Noshiro (2006 was the 2nd year in a row that a ship took Best in Show honors)



Hope to see many of you there!!

I went on Saturday. Amazing show. Some of the pieces were fantastic and the people who ran the event were the nicest I've seen. Great job!

Can't tell ya how sorry I am to have missed this local show you fellas have here, but, when you work from before the sun rises till {unfortunately} well past the sun sets to get the bills paid and take care of the ones you Love, sometimes {most times it seems} you just miss out........
Glad you all had a good time, and a big "Thanks!"" for posting the pics so we can all enjoy.

Tread.
