DEFine Modellers Day -2023

Postby PeteScR » Mon Jun 27, 2022 8:06 pm

DEFine are pleased to announce that we will be holding our fifth DEFine Modellers Day on Saturday the 7th of January 2023. The venue is as previous years, Risley Village Hall, Risley, Derbyshire, DE72 3SU (beside the church).

Layouts attending and demonstrations will be communicated in due course. As in previous events, there will be no traders present. There is lots of parking and refreshments will be available on the day. Doors open at 10am and close at 4pm.

The venue can be reached within 5 mins off J25 of the M1. Take exit (Bostocks Lane) heading for Risley and then left at the lights on to A5010. The Village Hall will be signposted about half a mile along on the right hand side.


Any changes/additions etc. will be communicated ahead of the event and we will keep our blog updated with any more news and reminders nearer the date. We hope you can come along and enjoy the day. Pictures and coverage of previous events can be found in the blog archive https://definemodellers.wordpress.com/

Excellent news of the return of this event which for me along with the Society exhibitions, is one of the "must see" events of the year. Let's hope that Covid does not scupper the plans. :thumb

Thanks for a great show chaps.
For anyone who is near enough and hasn't got there yet, I would recommend a trip over this afternoon.

Fantastic day there with like minded modellers.
Privileged to have been allowed to give the P4 wheeled Cavalex 56 it's first run, it was given special permission to cross the bridge!

Unfortuately I had to make the decision to not go as I was suffering with a horrible flu like cold and didn't want to risk spreading it to others and didn't much feel like getting out of bed, let alone travelling. It meant Natalie couldn't go either (Though had she asked, she'd have been welcome to borrow the car for the day if she'd wished). Hopefully next year.
