Military Modelers Club Louisville 2024 IPMS Model Show

September 29, 2024 · in Show Reports · · 5 · 122

The Military Modelers Club of Louisville 2024 Model Show, was held yesterday at the Paraquet Springs Convention Center. MMCL had hosted shows here in previous years but this was my first time here, it is a very nice facility – clean, spacious, and very well lit. The weather was a factor though, the remains of Hurricane Helene had settled over the greater region and the rain was continuous. I came down from the North and had the easiest time of it, but those to the East of Louisville experienced power outages and flooding, those coming from the South had to contend with all that plus high winds and heavier rains.

There were 432 model entries, down from last year due to the weather. The club is justifiably famous for their outstanding raffle which is always a highlight. I was lucky at the raffle but my vendor purchases were confined to books - there were a few of those at great prices which I couldn't pass up. As always, the best part was hanging out with friends, it is a great way to spend the day!
