IPMS / NCT Monthly Meetings


fun_03.jpg (18074 bytes) The North Central Texas Chapter meets on the second Sunday of every month. The doors open at 1:00 pm for social hour; to see each other's work, discuss modeling techniques, and say hello.  In addition a video is usually shown on some subject of interest to modelers.  
<<<--- Some 'unique' conversions that appear occasionally ...
The meetings start at 2:00pm and lasts around 1 hour. We cover a variety of topics with various members usually giving a presentation about kit building skills or techniques. Many of these presenters have won at the National level.

The club holds a semi-annual auction to give members a chance to sell kits to each other, as well as raise some funds for the club.

Meetings are held in the city of Irving, usually at the Irving Parks and Recreation Garden and Arts Center, but please check the Events page for up-to-date location and date information.

Membership in IPMS/USA is not required to attend the IPMS/NCT meetings, but is encouraged. Also, there is no membership fee in IPMS/NCT, but a hat will be passed during the meeting for donations.

We are a not for profit group and support the local community through programs like the U.S. Marine Corps Toys for Tots, the 'Make & Take' Program at the yearly Scalesfest and other charitable programs.  We also support our troops in the field and have provided kits and supplies for troops during deployments away overseas.  Not too much of a stretch since many of our members are former soldiers, sailors and airmen themselves. people_11.jpg (159503 bytes)
