IPMS Email Blast for Events
Background
IPMS/USA has been using an ad hoc method of advertising Local Chapter events with email blasts to IPMS/USA members within an area of interest. This has proven effective for the Chapters but cumbersome to manage. The IPMS/USA Director of Local Chapters (DLC), in concert with the IPMA/USA Member and Event System Administrator (System Administrator), has developed the following procedures to standardize an efficient process for the Local Chapters to use to advertise their events via Wild Apricot, our Member and Event Data System.

2020 IPMS/USA National Convention Cancelled
Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on June 25, 2020 - 9:13pm EDTThe following is a joint announcement from the San Marcos 2020 Convention Leadership team and the IPMS USA Executive Board.
We jointly appreciate all the feedback we received regarding this year‘s convention. We’ve taken your comments and concerns into careful consideration, while maintaining an ongoing dialogue and negotiation with the Embassy Suites convention center in San Marcos. These negotiations have been proceeding carefully due to the significant financial exposure that IPMS would be subject to if we simply decided to cancel the convention unilaterally.

Coronavirus Update
Submitted by David Lockhart on March 19, 2020 - 7:41pm EDTTo all fellow modelers,
As the current COVID-19 pandemic continues (it hasn’t peaked yet), we request that you follow state & local requests to not meet in any groups and to self quarantine if possible. This means no monthly meetings or shows. With limited testing available and no vaccines, it’s not worth the risk. Between smart phones, email, Facebook, etc., you should be able to stay in contact with your fellow modelers.
Check with your contest chairmen or the event page on the IPMS/USA website before you get in your car!
Dust off your stash and build some models. As the country music artist Gary Allan sings, “Every storm runs out of rain”.
Stay healthy & safe. Happy modeling
David Lockhart
IPMS/USA
Director of Local Chapters
