As part of the Banning Centennial Train Festival a series of model railroad clinics will be presented. All clinics will be held in the Banning Community Center, 789 N.

The $5.00 Festival admission includes the clinics as well as the modular railroad displays, swap meet (Saturday only), model contest room and train exhibitors/ vendors. The admission is good for both days. Parking is free. Here is the clinic schedule: Saturday, October 19 10:00 to 12:00 Carl Heimberger: Casting & Painting Resin Rocks - Carl will demonstrate how to cast rocks using rubber molds, casting resin and expandable foam.

I never knew there was a Banning, CA. When I first read the shortened title in the forum index, I wondered why you were trying to "ban" Train Festivals. Sounds like a fun festival and informative clinics, wish I could attend.
