The IPMS Western Reserve and IPMS John H. Glenn Chapters welcome you to the 29th annual Cleveland Model Show.  Being held once again at the Kirtland Schools Complex (9150 Chillicothe Rd. Kirtland, OH 44094), we fill two gyms with models, vendors, displays and a raffle.  We have 62 categories in the contest and regularly over 100 vendors tables filled with models, tools, books and more.  Food is available on-site with a free lunch provided for judges.
