Announcing the inaugural North East Model Boat Show!
Sat & Sunday 28th 29th March 2009

Venue is:  Temple Park,
John Reid Road,
South Shields,
Tyne & Wear,
NE34 8QN

For what we believe is the first time ever there is to be a show in the North East…having spoke to many a household name in the model boat industry no one can remember a show in this part of the world..

We are on the look out for clubs many expressed an interest at the Blackpool show.. from York Bridlington and as far north as Scotland and we trust Tynemouth will be there… We have just invited all the traders as you generally now and again with the feedback at Blackpool most of the trade are wanting to attend, the venue is a very large sports centre with a cafe and all the usual you would expect with apparently more parking spaces than you can shake a stick at

The traders invited and some have already booked including I am sure will be Tyne Models who we may look to for a little local knowledge in the area.
