Who Are We?
The "Glue Crew" is an organized (ok, somewhat organized) group of gung-ho individuals in central Wisconsin that share a common interest
in building and displaying scale models. We meet once a month, have a short business meeting and the rest of the time is open for telling
stories, sharing tips, showing work in progress, and just plain old BS. Like any other club, we have membership dues of $12.00 a year
per person; these dues help defer the costs associated with attending future model contests and includes a hobby shop discount. In
addition to the $12.00 per year, we have been throwing a few dollars in the kitty each month to help build the pot, this is voluntary and
not a requirement of the club. We are a non-profit organization. The money raised at our contest is given back to the community through local charities.
The club consists of modelers with a variety of interests, including cars, aircraft, ships, armor, and anything else that one can make
with plastic. We do have a Supreme and Most Exalted ruler, who we call President... "Hardware" Ken Koppa, the VP is Bob
"Madd Dogg" Dudley, the Treasurer is Pete "Cough, Sucker" Samolinski, and the Secretary/IPMS contact is Joe "I can't believe this is
happening" Drew. The club's usual meeting place is the Treu's Tic Toc on Thomas Street in Wausau, and we meet the first Thursday of the month
at 7:00 P.M.
If you live in the Central Wisconsin area, give us a try and I'll bet you like what you see and hear.

Giving back to the community.
On Dec. 13, 2007, The Glue Crew presented donations of $250 to each of the following charities: the Share the Holidays program & The Women's Community Center. The money was raised from the sale of raffle tickets and registration fees at our 2007 contest. This has become a tradition with our club, to give back to those in need in our community. Our donation to the Share the Holidays program was matched by River Valley Bank so it became $500 going to both the Salvation Army and the neighbors Place.
Accepting the donations were Jeff Thelen from Channel 7 with the Share the Holidays program and Jessica Lind from the Womens Community Center. most of the glue Crew members were in attendance including the following: Bob Dudley, Marc Leveque, Pete Samolinski, Ken Koppa, Joe Drew, Larry Bernarde, Ken Prigge,Clyde Jones, and Jim Unger.
