A sincere thank you to Peter Philips and his family for hosting the meeting.  The setting was welcoming with tasty food and marvelous hospitality.  It is estimated that 26 people attended the meeting.  John Queralt was welcomed back to the Chapter and David Chan was introduced as a new member.  Thank you to those who attended and contributed to the meeting.

The first item on the agenda was a request for members to provide an emergency contact to Mark Gee for the roster.  

If you have any questions or additions to the ETE SoCal website please contact Chris Higgins.

The M-SIG continues running trains at the San Diego Model Railroad Museum and they have a great time coordinating with the museum members and operating trains.  If anyone is interested in visiting as a guest send me an email.  Don Gaw, the National President of ETE,  spoke of the convoluted process of opening the M-SIG bank account.

We hope to gather together and have a festive time at the Great Train Show on October 3rd through the 5th.   If you plan on running trains at the show in Del Mar, please be available to assist with set up and/or take down.
