In just about six weeks, on Saturday April 5, 2014, MosquitoCon 23 will here. The show will once again be at the Wayne Police Athletic League (PAL) Hall just off of Route 23, about a mile or so north of Route 80 (take the 1st exit).
Why come to MosquitoCon? Well, here's just a few reasons:
- It's one of the largest annual model hobby events not only in Jersey, but on the East Coast!
- NJIPMS's show staff are seasoned professionals, with 22+ years of show experience under their belts!
- MosquitoCon boasts more vendors/better vendors than many IPMS/USA Regional shows!
- Number of models competing meets or exceeds the amount that show up at many IPMS/USA Regional shows!
- Lighting in the model room is superb!
- Modelers attend our show from near and far. In the past we've had attendees from Europe, South America and Asia!
- NJIPMS has many ship modelers in its membership and the ship categories are filled with great models!
- You may run into ModelWarship regulars Bob Cicconi, Dan Kaplan and Keith Bender, among others! Rumor has it Sgt Ryan will once again attend!
- The Wayne PAL has the BEST Hot Dogs!
This year the show theme will be The Great War. So break out those dreadnoughts and battlecruisers and bring them on down!
Please head over to the NJ/IPMS website, for full details, which include a show flyer. Soon we'll have up the model entry and registration forms. The show flyer has directions, list of categories, list of special awards, rules and other pertinent info.
I am really hoping for a record turnout in the ship categories this year, so I hope to see many of you there!!

You won't have to look too hard to find us. You'll see our "Bobby Cicconi and myself" shinny heads glowing from the overhead lights
