First off, we sincerely appreciate the time and efforts our PMLC clinic presenters invest in assembling material to present at our event. It requires time and expertise to put together a first-class clinic and we, and our participants, appreciate that effort.

This seems like a good time to pass along some news about the 2023 Pacific Model Loggers’ Congress. We are going to be combining some contest classes for the 2023 event, partly for financial reasons, and for now we’re eliminating the Diorama class from the model contest. Our event (along with other model railroad conventionsContinue reading “2023 Contest Changes”

Our 2022 Dean of the Woods award went to Lon Wall, posthumously, for his significant contributions to the hobby and our logging interest group in general. We wish he could have been with us to accept the award but alas, that was not to be.

We’ve had excellent response from quite a few pending attendees and that’s a welcome development. Our projects are mostlyContinue reading “One week to go”

We’re moving ahead with plans for the event as well as refining some Covid-related aspects our attendees may want to know about. We won’t be doing food service in the room, but coffee, soda, meals and the legendary Camp 18 sweet rolls will be available upstairs in the restaurant. Although the Covid-related mask requirement willContinue reading “March 6 update”
