We are delighted to announce that we will be staging "Muster on the Parade Ground 2016" on Saturday 9th July 2016 at the Queen's Campus Sports Hall, Thornaby, Stockton-on-Tees TS17 6BH between the times 10.00am to 4.00pm.

What will be different about this show compared to any of our other 40 shows is that our wargames will use the "Hammerhead" approach – every game being a public participation game with successful participants receiving a ticket that they can enter into a prize draw - maximum 5 tickets per gamer. The prize draw would be made towards the end of the day with prizes being a voucher exchangeable for products from traders at the show (or within a short period thereafter). We intend to provide table space for as many public participation games as we can attract covering as wide a range of periods and scales as possible.

As with our other shows there will be other attractions such as a bring and buy stand, displays of model vehicles etc and we intend to attract as many displays by re-enactment groups we can find covering as many periods as possible.

All proceeds will be donated to the Royal British Legion.

Shortly there will be a dedicated show Facebook page - which would record progress on show organisation and attract friends of the show. Watch out for the announcement of its launch. In the meantime if you would like more information about the show or would like to take part in it as a trader or gamer then visit our website - www.teesshows.co.uk - for details of how to contact us.

I'll come along as a member of the public, and will spread the word as much as I can.
