How many of yall are members of a local modeling club and is there a good website to find lists of modeling clubs so i can see if there are any in Georgia? Thanks.
I’m a member here in Eastern NC, well of a local club, I’ve never been an AMPS or IPMS member.
You could google IPMS Chapters in Georgia, or check the IPMS web site, I would think they would be listed there
I appreciate it.
I’m a member of a local club and an IPMS member. I started the club by checking the Gallery in FSM each month. Looked at the name and location of the builder of the model, checked the phone book for his phone number and called. There are now 6 of us and we meet roughly once a month and also go to contests together. If you don’t have a club near you, try it. Hope that this helps you.

Thanks its definatly something im gonna look into bc i want to find other modelers in my area to get together with and talk kits, techniques etc. etc.
You have a better chance of winning at contests if you belong to one…ask me how I know this…lol.
I belong to the local chapters of both AMPS & IPMS. There are a few other clubs here locally as well, but I hear that we are the exception in having so many clubs in a comparatively close geographic region. I was invited to IPMS from a forum member here, Duke Maddog, and from there invited in to AMPS. Both clubs are great, have some world class modelers, and have helped me improve my skills BIG TIME since I joined back in summer '07. Look on the IPMS USA website to find a link to your closest chapter.
