It’s been very disheartening for me to see how many members we have and the lack of support for a venue that loves to have us there and is a large benefit…Read more

We also probably won’t be back by the 1st so our stuff can just sit in our boxes in the back if that works.

Is it supposed to only allow 2 to sign up automatically or do I have to lock it after 2 have signed up so no more can sign up?

The early part of the summer was just easier to make it there after work.

The UCS AT-ATs, the snow speeders, the figures. And that’s ok, the overall is a MOC because those elements and more are put together in a unique way. So call it whatever you want, even if it’s only part of the whole.
