Railway Modellers Meet of BC on line and in person meet



For the past few years I have been on the organizing committee of the Railway Modellers Meet of BC.  We have worked hard to make this one of the best model railway events that we can.  Over the past 7 years we have continued to work on improving the meet.  We are all proud of what we have been able to achieve over the past years and are looking forward to many more years of presenting the best model railroading has to offer.  

We had to scramble to put together an online meet when the Covid-19 pandemic hit in 2020.  In a very short timeframe we learned how to put on a Zoom event which went pretty well considering we were basically making it up as we went along.  We continued with the Zoom clinics in 2021, and for 2022 we are going with a hybrid on line and in person meet.  The clinic presentations will be on line while there will be in person events on May 27th to 29th.    

It has a lot going on:  Operating Sessions on private layouts, On Line clinics and layout tours, In Person Layout tours and a full slate of activities as part of the In Person Meet on May 28th.  

The full slate of activities is outlined below:

Thursday May 5th 7pm Pacific - Marty McGuirk Keynote presentation and online clinics
Thursday May 12th 7pm Pacific - Online clinics and online layout tours
Thursday May 19th 7pm Pacific - Online clinics and online layout tours
