To All,
I put this question to the whole community. Would you be interested in attending
a LEGO Fan convention held at the Legoland Park in California?
Now, your input here is essential. What time of the year would you prefer to
have it? What type of convention would you want? Does it need to carry a
recognizeable brand name such as BrickFest or such? How many days would you want
it? What types of perks from the park would you like to see?
Use this post as a place to exchange ideas. For those on the west coast unable
to make it north to NorthWest BrickCon or east to BrickFest, what would you like
a southern California convention to be.
The reason I am asking? I do not know, really. Would I offer to organize some
aspect of it or lead it? Would I attend it if it came about? I guess essentially
I would like to attend the Legoland park yet again and enjoy the new rides I
have not experienced since the last BricksWest was held there, and I would like
to attend with a couple hundred other friends.
Sincerely,
Todd

| (...) I am not really sure that it is necessary to have it at Legoland-- The way I see it, people who go to Lego Conventions are not really that interested in the Legoland experience unless there could be a really interesting behind the scenes tour (...) (18 years ago, 7-Sep-06, to lugnet.events)

| (...) Yes. I have never been and would love to do an outing to the park in conjunction with a con. That said, I suggest it be done as an optional "add-on" preferably the day BEFORE the main con starts. ie: Con runs Friday-Sunday with bus excursion (...) (18 years ago, 7-Sep-06, to lugnet.events)

| (...) Todd, I really appreciate all the work that you and Joe did for BrickFest this year. It was really great. I would like to chime in on a few ideas for a west coast "BrickFest". 1- Definately February. 2- Definately Southern California (San (...) (18 years ago, 8-Sep-06, to lugnet.events)

| Todd, I imagine that enough time has passed that the ghosts of Brickswest past have been exercised. I have worried for some time now that the negative way that BW ended has clouded how cool of an event this actually was. People flew in from all (...) (18 years ago, 9-Sep-06, to lugnet.events)

| I think that Geoff has really got something there. Please allow me to take a stab at it. In my life it always seems to boil down to relationships, which inevitably means interpersonal communications. And that seems to always boil down to treating (...) (18 years ago, 13-Sep-06, to lugnet.events)
