Date correction for Kirklees MBC Steam Day

Due to a faux pas on our part, the date provided for the Kirklees MBC Steam Day given in the May issue of Model Boats is regretfully incorrect.

PLEASE NOTE the Club will be holding its first open day of 2025 on Sunday May 25 (not May 18), as incorrectly specified in last month’s mag) from 10 am to 4 pm at Wilton Park, Bradford Road, Birstall, Batley. WF17 8JH. The theme is steam powered models and Mountfleet Models kits and builds. There will also be a display of military models.

Visitors will be very welcome take along and sail any type of model, with the exception of IC and high-performance fast electrics. Please note, however, steam models will need a valid test certificate. Club members will be happy to answer any questions.

Free car parking will be available, and visitors will be permitted to use the toilet facilities in the park’s café.

For further details contact Stan Reffin on 0113 2675790 (after 6pm please).
