MOSS CON 2014

On Saturday, June 21, 2014 we held our fourth annual Model Show and Competition -- MOSS CON 2014. We are continually thankful for The White House Theatre graciously donating the use of the theater's West Wing for our show. 39 modelers from Missouri, Kansas, Arkansas, Iowa and Texas entered 164 models into the competition! It was an excellent turn-out and we are thankful for all who came to support MOSS CON!
The special theme award for this year's show was The 70th Anniversary of D-Day: Operation Overlord. We had a good number of entries for this special category.
