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 enjoyable model show they have ever attended!
- NJIPMS's show staff are seasoned professionals, with 20 years of show experience under their belts!
- MosquitoCon boasts more vendors/better vendors than most IPMS USA Regional shows! This year we will once again have additional table inside the model room!
- Number of models competing meets or exceeds the amount that show up at most IPMS USA Regionals!
- Lighting in the model room is superb!
- Modelers attend our show from near and far. In the past we've had attendees from Europe, South America and Asia!
- NJIPMS has many ship modelers in its membership and the ship categories are filled with great models!
- You may run into ModelWarship regulars Brian Miller, Bob Cicconi, Dan Kaplan and Keith Bender, among others! Though Keith has promised me he isn't entering this year, so it's 'safe' to come on down!
This year the show theme will be The Roaring Twenties. We will also have special categories to commemorate the 70th Anniversary of Pearl Harbor and the 150th Anniversary of the Civil War.
Head on over to the NJ/IPMS website for full details, which include a show flyer. Soon we'll have up the model entry and registration forms. The show flyer has directions, list of categories, list of special awards, rules and other pertinent info.
I am hoping for a record turnout in the ship categories this year, so I hope to see many of you there!!
* For those counting at home, this will be our 21st show, but our 19th year. We did two shows in 1993 due to the Blizzard of '93 wiping out our show in March.
