Winnipeg Model railraod Club announces the winner of their open house draw

WMRC treasurer John Bate holds the Bachmann Rail Chief HO train set with the wife of Rej Davis, the winner of the club's open house draw.

We are pleased to announce that Rej Davis is the winner of the draw for the Bachmann Rail Chief HO train set. The draw was held at the club's annual open house, which was held at the Charleswood Legion on April 9 and 10. John's wife Karen picked the winner from the "official salad bowl" at the Bate residence. Rej couldn't make it, so his wife picked up his prize for him. Congratulations, Rej!
 

Thanks to everyone who came to the Winnipeg Model Railroad Club's open house and train show!

We want to give a big THANK YOU to everyone who came to the Winnipeg Model Railroad Club's first open house and train show in three years that we held last weekend! We had a good turnout and raised a lot of money for St. Amant. We even had a piece on CTV Winnipeg on Saturday, featuring our vice president (and our main man) Ian Plett! Thanks also to everyone who volunteered and displayed at the show! Images shown were taken by our President, Bob Harrison.
