| Mid-Winter Get-Together (from Don Sadler) - The 17th annual Mid-Winter Get-Together will be held on Saturday, February 14, 2009 from 10 am. until 3 pm. in the Model Building. No formal program is planned, it is just a great opportunity to quit shoveling snow and doing the household chores of winter and get together with fellow Rough & Tumblers for some fun and donuts. Everyone is encouraged to bring models and other projects, complete or not, crafts, any photos from trips, adventures, past shows (R&T and elsewhere), videos or other interesting stuff. Lunch is bring-your-own with coffee, donuts, soda, chips/dip and cookies provided. Video equipment (DVD and VCR tape) will be available and we will have the heater fired up for your comfort.  So, don't let that groundhog tell you how much more winter we are going to have. Get outside and have a look for yourself at R&T and have some fun in the process.The snow date (only as a result of serious snow) will be Saturday, February 21, 2008. |
