Our 2025 Mid-Atlantic
NNL Show:
The Maryland Automotive Modelers Association annual
Mid-Atlantic NNL was held 10 May 2025. It was a
huge success with 153 builders entering 418 of the
best built model cars, trucks, and motorcycles on
earth!
MAMA thanks
our most generous sponsors for their support of
our 2025 show!
The outstanding support that our sponsors provided
to our raffle and door prizes was a huge hit with
our participants and made them all a significant
part of our show's success. Please click the sponsor
icons below to visit our sponsors' sites in a new
browers tab and learn for yourself why so many lucky
Mid-Atlantic NNL participants chose their products
from our raffle tables.
MAMA also expresses
gratitude for all those who supported our show!
A great big thank
you to all our trophy sponsors! They made it possible
for us to bestow upon our class winners what we
happen to think are among the nicest-looking trophies
in the hobby.
Another great big
thank you to all of the vendors who came out to
the show and provided participants with plenty of
items with which to grow their collections.
We also want to
acknowlege the terrific support of the Level Volunteer
Fire Hall in providing us an affordable venue and
accomodating our schedule. We are particularly thankful
for Ms. Karen Lopes and the Ladie's Auxilliary who
were key to making the show arrangements by interacting
with the hall's Operational and Administrative officers
on our behalf, helped set up the tables, and staffed
the kitchen to make sure there was a good selection
of tasty menu items available for us and our show
participants to nosh on for breakfast and lunch!
Last, but not least, we want to
thank all those club members who worked so hard
setting up, tearing down, and operating the show
as well as those who did plenty of work behind the
scenes to make the show happen.
MAMA especially
thanks each and every particiant and visitor who
attended our show. You made the show the success
that it was.
