I don't remember if Bill Lenoir was a TCA member or not? He did belong to an informal Tampa Bay area group known as The Boomers. (No, my moniker didn't originate with them). When I took my annual vacation from Deutsche Bahn I was always invited to join Chester, Bill and Ken Halverson (all lived in Tampa) when they met with the other guys on Fridays. They rotated meetings in one of the other Boomer's homes each week. Two lived across the bay in St. Petersburg. The wife's worked the S&D Dept. (Snacks and Drinks Dept.).
Bill wasn't married but always received help from Boomer Ken Halverson when his turn came up. Though Ken wasn't married either, he was a good organizer for the S&D's at his place and, as mentioned, when it was Bill's turn too. In the beginning the Boomers would each work on kits they were building, however, as years went on it became more of an operating session. Chester was the exception. Since he didn't have a layout, it was simply a Round Table Bull Session. Only non-alcoholic beverages were served!
Sadly, the Boomers are no more. To my knowledge, all have taken up residence in the Roundhouse in the Sky, that's just beyond the Big Rock Candy Mountains.
