Hawkeye’s Squawkbox

Looks as if there was a technical glitch on our end, which we discovered during a routine check of the functionality of our website and email system today. We found a snag in the email account for the contest entries. Therefore, just in case some might have had difficulty submitting entries, we are extending the contest deadline until September 23rd, 2008 with the winners being announced October 1st, 2008.

If you have submitted entry photos after August 11th, please resubmit them. If you have any doubt as to whether or not yours were received, please resubmit them again…you should have received an acknowledgment that they were received.

Submit entries to Hawkeye@HawkeyesHobbies.com

Revised Deadline: September 23rd, 2008

Contest info can be found HERE.

Thank You and Good Luck!

You can enter as many models as you want. Submit each model separately. Entries containing more than one per email will be disqualified. Contact information will be kept confidential.

For me I rely on my memory as to what I have in my stash, though I will admit that I forget most of the time of what I do and don’t have. For those of you who need a means to manage your stash or collections of any kind then I’d like to recommend that you check out the folks at Manage My Collectibles LLC.

For those who have collections of any kind, it is important to have a means to inventory that collection. Not only to know what you have, but also for insurance purposes. Here in our area flooding has taken a heavy toll on many who collect as a hobby. Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to produce a document that shows what your collection consists of as well as its value? Regardless of what you collect (including models) Manage My Collectibles has a program for you. Check them out…visit their website today.
