We have been doing a Family Group called All About Family for about 2 years. We
have started to do LEGO® activties on a monthly basis. This month we did LEGO
kaleidoscopes which was a FABULOUS project. Next month we are doing a LEGO®
Easter Bunny project (Lets first remember the reason for the season of Easter).
If you are interested in being added to the activities list, and participating
in the LEGO® Family activities (not sponsored nor endorsed by the LEGO® Company)
we will be doing something every month. We usually have drawn sponsors to help
pay for supplies (a neighborhood group has written us into their NRP plan and we
have also received individual donations and sponsorships) so most of the
activities are FREE and kids are usually able to bring home their projects! Keep
in touch! Sincerely, Brian email: kelley01@visi.com

(Cross-posted to a few relevant sections. I hope I haven't gone bonkers.)
[The Greater Midwest Lego® Train Club] will be displaying its ever-expanding 18'
x 30' town/train layout at two Midwest shows in the coming weeks. We've added
some new sections to the layout in recent months and hope to continue adding on
during the shows.
As always, we encourage visitors to bring their own rolling stock to run on our
layout. There will be many many other (non-Lego®) train layouts and dealers
displaying at both shows, and John and Ross Neal's Twin Cities Lego® Train Club
(TCLTC) layout (<http://www.mocpages.com/home.php/10>) will also be set up at
the La Crosse show.

Hopkins) on January 28 from 8 am to 5 pm. For details and directions go to

Man you've got a long memory! I think it's been a long time since I've mentioned
where I am, and I haven't been too active lately. Getting more active though,
even the thought of a new Mindstorms is inspiring me to pull the old one out.
So where is the FLL tournament? Maybe I should stop by and visit.
