The Pensacola, FL Chapter of IPMS, The Pensacola Modeleers, began as a small club of modelers about 20 years ago. We received our IPMS charter in February 1998.

Our club meets every 2nd and 4th Saturday (see schedule) of each month at John's Models off US Highway 29 at 1206 East Kingsfield Rd (see map). The first meeting each month is our “Show and Tell” where our members bring in their models to show their current work both during and after construction. The second meeting is our “build Session” where our members bring in their models to work on. During this meeting we discuss modeling tips while working on our models.

Other events we sponsor are an annual Swap Meet, The Pensacola Modeleers Modelfest and a Christmas party/social each year for the members. (see special events) We conduct several local "make it and take it" classes for youngsters each year. We enter a group project each year at the IPMS Nationals. This year it is "Strangers in a Strange Land". We also have club contests with a contest "theme" as well as open categories. We have also been awarded Region 3 Club of the Year 2004.

Our membership has now grown to over 30 members ranging from pre-teenagers to adults. We have skill ranges from novice to expert. All modeling disciplines are welcome. Although the majority of our members build aircraft, we also have modelers who do armor, figures, ships and sci-fi.

Annual dues for full time members are $20 per year or $2 per month. This helps us fund our IPMS Nationals project and our annual Model Expo contest. Membership also grant you a 10% discount on all model kits and John's Models. If you are interested in joining us contact John Struck or Warren Dickerson for more info.
