Director’s Message
My name is Charles Goodrich, and I am the Division 3 Director. I wanted to take a moment to say hello and pass on some things that we do in Trinity River Division. We have monthly meetings at Christ the Servant Lutheran Church, 821 S. Greenville Ave., Allen, TX 75002. We will be meeting at the church from 10:00 to 12:00 the 3rd Saturday of each month unless there is a scheduling conflict. So, mark your calendars for these meetings.
Each meeting has a host of activities including the following.
- Show and Tell – Where members bring models (finished or in progress) to share what they are working on.
- Tips and Tricks – Anyone who has a tip or trick to make modeling better or faster they are invited to share their ideas with the group.A lot of good ideas have been shared at the meeting under this category.
- Announcements of upcoming events.
- Clinics – At each meeting we have a clinic to share methods for building model, making scenery, laying track, installing electronics, what the prototype does, etc.
The Lone Stare Region hosts an annual convention where numerous clinics are presented as well as one of the best model railroad contests anywhere. There are also prototype tours that illustrate what the real railroading world is doing and many activities for the non-modelers the help keep everyone involved. If you want to get involved, check out our regional website and follow the steps on the link provided: Lonestar Region.
If you ever have any questions, please feel free to call or email me. I’d be more than happy to help you in any way that I can. I look forward to seeing you at the next meeting or workshop.
Charles Goodrich, MMR
