2023 Fall Meet is a wrap
The weekend weather was just as great as our 3rd Annual Fall Meet. A thank you to our Fall Meet crew who helped make the event run without a hitch. The crew took care of setup, onsite security, parking, Saturday lunch, and more. The crew consisted of Dave L, Wes, Scott, Sherry, Norm, Susan and others.
Starting next year, we are making some adjustments to the NGLS fall meet starting with shifting our meet to the 4th weekend in October. This is being done in order to reduce conflicts with other established meets going on in October. This should allow both NGLS members and others in the hobby an opportunity to attend more fall meets going on in our region. Our 2024 Fall Meet dates will be Thursday, October 24th through Sunday, October 27th. Mark your calendar and start spreading the word.
Speaking of the calendar our last Public Run Day of the 2023 season will be Saturday, November 4th. We are expecting another great turnout from our visitors, members, and locomotives. While the public run day season is coming to a close, we still have other club activities on the calendar for this year including our annual Leftover Turkey Fun Run, December Club Meeting, and more.
