Baton Rouge Scale
Modelers recently hosted Cajun Modelfest XXI, with this years' theme "The
Fabulous Forties". The event was very successful with modelers coming
from all around Region 6 bringing and exceptional lot of kits, many we had not
seen before. With the twin hurricanes last year it took a while for clubs across
the South to regroup, and the vendors took an especially hard hit, since many
are based in coastal cities from Mississippi to Florida. This year we had a lot
of fresh faces and new catagories. Five "Best-of" catagories
recieved a Louisana "boot" award crafted from Louisiana Cypress.
We would like to
extend our thanks to the crew of Lousiana Naval Warfare Musuem and USS Kidd
DD-661. We would like to extend a very special thank you to our sponsor,
Autozone, for helping to make this event a success. I believe we have the
only raffle where you might just win a power buffer, mechanics wrench set or
bench grinder on a raffle ticket! Thanks to everyone who helped out with
this event. Please check our website for further details, and help support the
USS Kidd museum and the fine work it
is doing for the community.
