McMinnville Aircraft Modelers will host a Swap Meet on March 14, 2009
at Yamhill County Fairgrounds in McMinnville, Oregon. For the past
three years this swap meet was billed as “McMinnville Collecto and Swap
Meet”. Noel Martin hosted it. I will be hosting the Swap Meet
this year. This event has gained momentum each year and has become very
successful. Last year we rented 60 tables. We admitted about 90 people
(not including vendors) for a total of about 200 people. Swap meets are
a fun and enjoyable part of model aviation. They provide opportunities
for modelers to get together and visit and share our great hobby. Swap
meets also provide a chance to find good deals or sell models we are
not flying.
Please review the included registration form. Please promote this event
at your next meeting.
