Hi all, I have emailed all the clubs that came last year.
We do not charge anything for exhibiting at our show, just ask for a bit of help in clearing up on the Sunday. Obviously the show is in St. Albans but if there is anyone local who I do not know about or lone boat modellers who would like to exhibit their boats contact me and we can see if we can make arrangements to suit both parties.
We have a few commercial traders but they are aware that sales are almost exclusively to exhibitors as the majority of visitors are the local population with their children, 400+ last year, they are all amazingly quiet just enjoying all the big boys toys and we hope to make early converts.
The content is Model boat clubs, a demo pool outside, steam train rides, engineering items, model traction engines. There is a large Meccano exhibition and Ant of Robot Wars fame has put together a larger truck demonstration than at Alexandra Palace.
There are a few model railway layouts, and flying out on the playing field, including commercial quadcopters. We have our club shop and having recently cleared deceased members houses have more modelling and engineering stuff than usual.
Plus a few other things we await confirmation on.
Hope to see you there,
Regards to all,
Roy (Hon Sec)
