@rcgrier3406 – that’s awesome, thank you! sounds good.

@greg what about evenings on those days?

@greg @knb112 @randomdan – the Principal is out 4/5, 6, 7 – would any of you or all of you happen to be available the following week? 4/11, 4,12,4/13, 4/14?

@knb112 thanks! I’m going to try to make it. My wife has to work so if I do come down I’ll have my kid in tow. @watchwmarcella can you possibly hook Krista up with the booklets?

@watchwmarcella hey are the manuals still available?

UPDATE: the 6th is out, but the 7th is on the table. What do you all think?

@mrmain18 @knb112 – Julie is open for May 4,5,6 for whatever we want to do. I suggested we do Star Wars LEGO model displays and free build your own empire or rebel ship. The 6th is probably the best time to do this as both the 4th and 5th are school days.

Also, I own no LEGO Star Wars so I’ll be relying on other folks to supply those. Still…[Read more]

Hi everyone. I have some updates [finally] on the LEGO studio at Bellevue. They were able to clear a space out at the bottom of the school and were also able to get a ton of LEGO products donated to them from various organizations.

Now that we have a space and product, I was hoping some members of the LUG could join @knb112 and me in checking…[Read more]

Following up on this. Sorry for the delay. I feel reasonably confident that we could pitch a variety of dates for this, and they’d be amenable to them. I’ll follow up with Julie again on a preferred date and time. They have a reasonable space for displaying, building, and otherwise hanging out.

I’m going to see their availability for May and June…[Read more]

@joshhall no, not yet – it’s still on the table if there is interest. I need to talk with the K&J folks again. They’re basically ready when we are. Doesn’t have to be December.

@greg I knew you’d be in on this – you’re perfect for it, obviously. Thank you for offering to help! Also, for what it is worth, you and I share a similar vision on an AFOL studio and I might have something in mind for you that we should also brainstorm about.

@watchwmarcella that’d be amazing! Thank you! I’m donating mine as well. I can coordinate with you separately.

Thank you Ben! It was great to see you again and to meet Rachel!

Hi everyone!!

Final results back from the Library event:

– Over a period of 4 hours, we had about 250 people roll through!
– The fundraiser brought in about $1500, after expenses, $1300. This was the library’s biggest fundraiser in its history – which is great.
– The event got coverage across social media, televised news, and more.
– Perhaps…[Read more]

Hey @greg! Everything is going smoothly! We have the LUG play brick, Doug, cards, etc. ready to go. Some residents are contributing their models to the show as is the art program from a local church. I’ll be moving stuff over tomorrow and Saturday morning, if you had anything you wanted to be displayed, the library will accept it starting…[Read more]

@tbrown00 Thank you so much! I’m really excited to have you join us. It’s going to be a lot of fun. Let’s chat sometime soon. E-mail a.rewrite@gmail.com or call/text 4127797665. In a nutshell, we’re using the whole library as an exhibition space. So, bring whatever models you’ve made and feel comfortable with displaying. Size and space aren’t a…[Read more]

Thanks Krista! I appreciate you covering it. Happy to take questions, everyone.
