Things were very hot this year

Earley Risers held our Annual Summer Competition this year on the 19th July 

 

The competition was smaller that the last couple of years, with 13 different people entering 41 models, across the various classes. Although there were fewer entries the standard was very high with some very close results.

 

Club members voted for models in two major competitions; the Earley Risers Plate, for models built straight out of the box, and the Challenge Cup for modified or scratch built models. Models also competed in 8 different classes.

 

The entry fees for the competition raised £35 for club funds
