Thumbs up Advertise yourself- call for designers

All

We are having a mini paper convention in Dayton, Ohio May 11-13.
Dayton Paper Con 2018 May 11 to 13th-dayton-paper-modeling-show-convention.jpg

I want to print some freebies for guests to build during the event.


Do you have any you want to share? If so, please provide a link or allow permission if you have files on our download section here.


I'm looking for simple ones that people can build in under an hour. Also medium complexity so they can start those as well.


I sent some of you a pm, but this is an open invite to all.

Let me know how to connect new modelers with your website if you are selling/sharing them or other models. Should be a win-win for all.

Thanks

Isaac

I got good responses from Dave ( Airdave ) and Michael ( Gremir ) regarding downloads which we can have our visitors start on.

Many thanks

Cool Flyer modification

I made some modifications to the flyer. Specifically, added the make and Take option where visitors can build some simple models and take home ( thanks to the designers providing support; Dave and Michael )

and

I modified the hours on Sunday to allow us to visit as the group the Air Force museum in the afternoon. We can then return to the hotel for a wrap up.

Only thing left is to spread the word and post it wide ( Rick, if you don't mind, please add it to the Facebook page ).

Exclamation Modification to the schedule

I met with "John Wagenseil" today to discuss in more details our upcoming Mini convention.

Primarily, there are two aspects to the meet. Our own participants of which there are only 7 or so as of today, and the general public.

So due to the reality, here is the schedule:


Friday May 11 is a set up day in the afternoon and evening to allow folks to travel and meet. I will see if I can negotiate a partial day rental from the hotel.

Saturday May 12 is a full day for us as well as the general public and will include discussions and Make and Take.
Saturday evening at 6 pm is our group dinner at the hotel.

Sunday May 13, we can get together for breakfast/brunch at the hotel as a group and then go touring some of the Dayton sites like the Air Force Museum , Origami display at the Art Institue, etc...


So basically, I am cutting the out of pocket expense to rent the meeting hall at the hotel, but tightening Friday and Sunday schedule


Comments?


I will put out a modified flyer.


Isaac
