So far, there are no announcements on the NNL East webpage about this year's show. I am also hearing from the grapevine that most likely NNL East will be cancelled at least for the spring. Hopefully we will see the show pushed back to the fall but its too early to tell with the pandemic.

Tom Geiger posted this on NNL East Facebook Friends on January 8, 2021
With the uncertainty of the current Covid-19 virus situation and in the interest of everyone's safety, the joint team of Tri-State Scale Model Car Club / NNL East and Diversified Scalerz have unanimously agreed to cancel our 2021 show calendar. We will not hold NNL East this April, nor the Diversified Scalerz Challenge in September.
Last year, we decided to postpone the show to September, we felt our plan to hold the show then, five months in the future, would be a safe bet. Who knew that things would go the way they have! So this year we are going to err on the side of safety and caution. We know we cannot predict anything!
Currently New Jersey is a mess. There is no indoor restaurant dining. Indoor events are restricted to 25% of posted occupancy with a maximum of 100 attendees. Many states are experiencing surges in Coronavirus. The roll out of the vaccines will be slow. At this point, with no crystal ball, we must go with the safety of our friends in the hobby.
We are getting MANY emails a day regarding show status. A lot of people have already said they would not be comfortable attending. So let's all stay home, build some models and stay safe!
The NNL East website will be updated shortly.

Chuck, Thanks for the info! I also checked another show that is held in the fall called Super September Showdown in PA and that September show is cancelled as well. Its another rough year for the hobby! On another subject, I just received a Micro Mark catalog and they are running a contest with a $1000 gift certificate grand prize.
