Time to start thinking about the 2012 Module Meet. As always, it will take place the weekend before Memorial Day, which places us at May 18–20, 2012, with most of the action taking place on Saturday, the 19th. In the meantime, enjoy the pictures of this year’s meet and plan the changes to your modules for next year.

To the Members:

The space we have at the Kimberton Fire Co is 10,000 square feet. The rent for our weekend is fairly reasonable. We have a total average number of members attending around 250-270. That includes narrow gauge module members, those needing tables and visiting members. This is a private, members only meet.

NO PUBLIC!

Space for modules and suppliers has become a problem. NO, we will not look for a larger building as this will not be affordable. The number of tables is maxed out at 50! As of March 27, 2011 the tables were all gone and still a few guys looking for tables. We cannot stuff the hall to a point of unsafe conditions.

Ten years ago we were able to set up 65+ tables. This year we are sold out at 51 tables! More modules are in the building. For next year those needing tables will have to remember to register early with their check and table requirements. These tables will be issued on a first come, first paid basis! When they are gone, they are gone! Please do not register until after January 1, 2012.

Remember, this is FIRST a module meet and SECOND a chance to pick up/sell supplies. I wish I could accommodate everyone that would like to be here but it can’t happen. We have asked module members to rethink the size of their modules and also sellers to possibly consolidate their tables. Some are possible and some are not. So we are stuck here busting at the seams and we will deal with it as best we can.

Thank you, Bruce Saylor
