Chicago House of Bricks will once again be held in conjunction with To Be
Continued! A fine cut of LEGO will be served with savory science-fiction,
buttered fantasy, and field-fresh gaming. But the ‘piece de resistance’ will
be the fun camaraderie had by all. Come join us May 12-14 in Downer’s Grove,
Illinois!
2BeCONtinued brings together fans from all domains. Last years attendees
mingled with celebrities, comedians, pirates, artists, and more. This year
looks to be just as exciting. Though HoB is held in conjunction with a science
fiction convention, all themes are invited to attend (the train layout was a
crowd favorite last year).
Visit our website for more
information.
We hope to see you there!

I’m very happy to announce that registration for Chicago House of Bricks at To
Be CONtinued 5: Legends is now online. Prices and information for registration
can be accessed here.
Registration is not exclusive to House of Bricks and will allow attendees access
to all areas of the convention. To Be CONtinued 5: Legends is being held at the
Doubletree Guest Suites and Conference Center in Downers Grove, which can be
seen here.
For Dealer information, please click on the Dealers link on the sidebar.
What’s really neat is that the Guest of Honor of this convention is
Weta Workshop, the effects facility that was
responsible for the visual effects to all of the Lord of the Rings movies and
King Kong.
Currently, plans are for a Great Ball Contraption and sci-fi models. Attendees
are encouraged to bring models that tie into the movies mentioned above, as
there is a nice SPACE to fill!
If you have questions or comments, please post them to
lugnet.events.houseofbricks, as others may have similar questions. Questions can
also be sent to HoB@2BeCONtinued.com which will forward to me as well as other
members of the ToBeCONtinued staff. Please refer to the following list of event
coordinators for any specific question.

Chicago House of Bricks Coordinator

Anyone ready to make plans for the next meeting? I thought we could toss
out the subject since some people missed the last one. Plus, there could be
others interested you have not spoken up yet.

The meeting was fun. We talked about Legos, and did some trading. I took
the large castle I'm working on and a tape with my city and other mocs on
it. I was able to see Scott and Lindsay's collection. Hopefully you and
Scott will be able to attend the next meeting.

We missed you at the meeting Scott (Thomas). Hope you are okay. We still
had a good time, but it would have been nice if you made it. Hopefully, you
can make the next meeting.

Hey guys,
Sunday at 2:00 will be fine. If you make it here earlier, we'll be here.
We're going to go through our stuff tonight and pull out what we would like
to trade. After hearing what Jason has to bring, I have a feeling we might
have less. Hopefully, we have some stuff that you would want...remember,
we're only collectors for three years so we might not have as big a pile. : )
Have a safe trip and look forward to seeing you.
Scott And Lindsay

That will work for me. I'm sure we'll get there a little before or after
since we've never gone there before. I'm bringing all my loose Legos
(pieces that aren't any structures yet). So that is about ten large tubs,
so we can trade. I'm also bringing the castle and windmill. The castle is
large (size of a card table) so there isn't any room left for the the rest
of the stuff (city, artic, pirate). So I filmed it with a video camera and
took alot of pics. So I guess we'll plan on being there around 2pm. See
you there.

Agreed. It's about a 3-4 hour drive for me, and since Lexington's in the
Eastern time zone, I'll lose an hour coming up there. I was thinking about
leaving here at 9 A.M., so that should put me in there around 2 P.M.
How's this sounding?

Either is fine with me, with enough notice. I think we have to stick with
Sunday now though. Looks like Scott (other one) won't be back until Sat
afternoon. We do need to decide on a time though.

Hey all,
I finally found out that I have Saturday off. Sorry about it taking so long.
So, shall we just keep this happening Sunday?

Jason and Scott,
Since it appears that Saturday might not be good for Scott, we've decided that
we should shift the meeting to Sunday. I hope this works for you both since
you mentioned it in the earlier messages.
Directions will be sent to you tonight. I promise.
Scott

If you all want to move the meeting to this Sunday or next Saturday, they
would both work for me. However, next Sunday is out.
Glad to hear that you have stuff to trade Scott (Thomas).
I'm going to videotape my town so it will have more close-up shots than pics
will. If I have room, I'll bring some of it.
I'll wait to hear from everyone to see if we have to change days.

Hey Jason,
I forgot to post this in my previous reply, but I have several sets MISB and
pieces to trade. I plan on bringing all that I have on hand. :)

Hey all,
I still don't know about Saturday. They said if we make our numbers before
Saturday, we'll have it off. This is most likely not going to happen. :\
If you want to reschedule, I'll be available Sunday or the weekend after the
one coming up. I'll for sure know today, and I'll post it Friday morning as
soon as I get home. :)

I plan on coming this weekend. However, if Scott can't make it I think we
should reschedule the meeting. I'd like to some trading so if everyone
wants to do that I'll bring most of the bricks and etc. that aren't built
into anything.
I'm going to try to bring the large castle I've built. I think I'll have to
just video the city because it would be too hard to move and transport.
Just let me know what we are doing and times.

Hello!
I was just letting you know that we are still here and still planning on
having you guys up this weekend. I will write directions to our place
tomorrow night. Sorry I haven't sent them sooner but school again has kept
us busy. Let me know if you have any other questions about the weekend.
Look forward to hearing from you,
Scott

Hey! We're still planning on having you over as long as you can make it.
Keep us informed if plans change. I will send directions to you later this
week on how to get to our house.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
