The Winter Meet will have a Silent Auction, Show & Tell and two clinics (the second clinic is being

finalized). The Division will also be providing snacks and drinks for everyone. The snacks will be in

individually wrapped packets. (Unfortunately, we will not be having our usual potluck this month due

to Covid.)

Silent Auction:

There will be a Silent Auction were every Division member can bring an unlimited number of items to sell. Note: The Division will be assessing a 10% fee off the grand total of what you make at the auction. All auction items must be related to model railroading or prototype railroad. You can bring things such as rolling stock kits, used rolling stock, new rolling stock, books, railroad memorabilia, posters, pins and anything else you would like to sell. At the end of the meeting all winning silent auction items will be distributed.

Clinic:

John Fiscella will be presenting “My Master Model Railroader? Quest; Some Car Models And How They're Getting Me There”. John will be bringing each model he is currently working on so that Division members can take a close look at them after the clinic.

For each model, John will:

1. Discuss the model’s prototype, the reasons he chose to model it, the history of when he built

it and what he’s been using it for,

2. The technical aspects of his modeling efforts,

3. Discuss the current status of the model, for the goal of submitting it for merit evaluation.

Show & Tell:

We would like volunteers to present any type of modeling, tool or project they have made or are working on, for a 3-5 minute presentation.

Please email Ryan to be put on the list for Show & Tell: superintendent@... [superintendent AT sandiegodivision DOT org]
