Falconwood Community Centre
Falconwood
This was one of our informal quarterly meetings where our members showed off their latest Meccano creations.
At around 2:00pm we had our annual general meeting, followed by the Model Tour in which members were invited to give a short talk about their models — in particular their entries for the Secretary’s Challenge!
The Weather Forecasting Secretary’s Challenge
This Challenge celebrated the 100th anniversary of the Met Office issuing its first broadcast Shipping Forecast, then called Weather Shipping, on 1 January 1924.
Members had to build something connected with weather forecasting.
