Special

In 2014, we hosted a benefit BBQ dinner in support of the Wounded Warrior Project. For the 2025 convention, we have decided to do it again in support of a new charitable organization, The Tunnel to Towers Foundation (T2T.org). T2T was founded by Frank Siller in honor of his brother Stephen Siller, who was a young firefighter killed responding to the Twin Towers on 9/11.

The event will be held at the Virginia Air and Space Center in downtown Hampton VA on Thursday August 7th. Seating will be limited to 180.

During Pre-registration and while at the convention, we will be selling chances to win a very special, hand-made quilt, (see picture below) made by Tricia Lent, wife of one of our IPMS Tidewater Members.  All proceeds from the tickets sold will be donated to the Tunnel to Towers Foundation.
