What's New
November 17th, 2025 Pelikan Model Meeting
We had 30+ crowd attend the meeting, including a new & potential new member, Jojo Rivera, Drew Tarter, Duane Brown, and Erich Kalbfell. Many models showed up at the meeting for the Charlie Hess Model Challenge. Pictures are posted in the Gallery.
Club elections were held. Three members stepped up for various unopposed positions, which turned up to be mostly voluntary. Since the passing of our friend and Treasurer George Hecht, Tom Hartline stepped up to be our new Treasurer, Doug Hamilton as Secretary, Donn Buerger as President, VP Steve Ferguson, with Ozzie Leandri as Convention Chairman & Website Manager. (See officers' duties under Officers/By-Laws & By-Laws to the left on this site).
Come January, you can also pay your dues directly on this secure website. We reduced dues to $20 for the time being. We also discussed our Annual Pelikan Christmas Party and decided to have it at the funeral home where we meet.
George Hecht, a Pelikan Club founding member and a wonderful Man, rest in Peace, my friend!
