Thank you!

Many thanks go out to all who attended and supported the 2024 Old Dominion Open—our great vendors, the benefactors who donated prize drawing kits and merchandise, our visiting hobby clubs, the patient and diligent judges who officiated the contest and its huge variety of incredible models, and all of the IPMS Richmond guys who worked hard behind the scenes on Hall Set-up Friday and Show Day Saturday. Our appreciation and special thanks, too, for all the guys manning the registration and general admission tables on Show Day, and for the long hours ODO Chairman Richard Leininger, Vendor Manager Craig Norris and Head Judge Mark Groth invested in making the 2024 ODO an amazingly outstanding event.
