Just a reminder!

April 27th - 29th is BrickSouth, a AFOL Display and get together in Atlanta, Georgia. This is in conjunction with First Lego League’s International World Festival held at the World Congress Center during those dates. AFOLs have been invited to set up and display their creations! FLL will host 80 teams from 30 countries. Teams will participate in a 2½ day tournament celebration of their robotic and research accomplishments. This year’s theme, Ocean Odyssey, challenges the children to explore the depths of our oceans and seas, helping maintain their health, biodiversity and productivity for future generations.

The LEGO Outlet store has a special shopping event planned for those who attend BrickSouth. Friday Night Bonanza with 20% off the regular price. (Some limits will be in effect). Come shop the extensive Pic A Brick, and grab those Batman sets you’ve been droolin’ over. At that event you’ll get to hang out with LEGO folks and even an Ambassador or two.

Friday afternoon, Greg Hyland will be on hand to display his original artwork for the Batman sets. Steve Witt will be on hand and answering your questions about LEGO, the community, and just about anything he knows. Also visiting the display will be some of the Creative Team at LEGO to see our creations and give encouragement. Don’t miss the opportunity to meet the folks who make the sets you buy at the store.

The displays will have security all during the FLL event. 20,000 People will be on hand cheering on their Robotics Teams and also coming by to be inspired by AFOL creations. If you haven’t committed to come to Atlanta this year, you still can! Just e-mail Chris Giddens at bricksouth@gmail.com and sign up. There is NO COST to be a participant.
