This is a bit of a repost, because the date changed.
For those of you who don’t already know, I present educational hands-on LEGO®
building exhibits at museums, schools, etc. The Web site for this work is at
http://www.BricksForBrains.com.
I’m holding my first annual Brick Bash (www.BrickBash.com) fund raising party
on Saturday June 11, from 1pm to 5pm, here in Ann Arbor, MI, USA (those of you
who are familiar with other annual spring-time events in Ann Arbor will catch
the “Bash” reference).
So here’s the invitation to all AFOLs: Come show off your creations at
my event! I can’t pay anything, but I can feed you and maybe I can find some
gas money for you. Or, if you’re in the area and don’t have anything to show,
stop by and visit. There’s NO admission fee.
Funds raied at the event will be used for turning Bricks for Brains into a
non-profit organization, which will help me obtain funding, such as grants and
corporate donations/sponsorships, so that I may continue to expand this work
and present exhibits for organizations that can’t afford it themselves (like a
lot of schools and the smaller museums).
I’ll have my big cable-stayed bridge there (13.5 feet long) and my Great Lakes
ore freighter (9 feet long). Both are scale models of the real thing. There
will also be other exhibitors, including a robotics guy.
More information is at www.BrickBash.com, or you can contact me at
duane@collicott.com.
Hope to see you there! Come support education!

Greetings to all Michigan and Ohio LEGO builders!
Bricks For Brains is the name of my educational work. I present educational,
hands-on LEGO building exhibits. Information abuot my work is avialable at my
Web site: http://www.BricksForBrains.com.
I am holding my first annual fund raising event on Saturday, May 21, in the
afternoon, here in Ann Arbor. The venue will be the Ann Arbor IT Zone, which is
right downtown. The purpose of this event is to raise the money needed to become
a non-profit organization. This status will help me greatly in obtaining funding
for my educational exhibits.
Along with other attractions and activities at this event, I would like to have
several builders show off their creations. These could be just about anything:
buildings, cities, trains, robotics, artwork, etc. Go crazy, hit me with
whatever idea you have.
Anyone who participates will be listed as a supporter of the event, and I will
aggressively promote (in mailings, announcements, signage, etc) you and whatever
organization you represent or are a member of.
Who knows, maybe this will end up becoming a regional AFOL event!
See you at House of Bricks!

...We warned you not to leave! Now you're going to have to culture fans up there
on your own :-)

Looks like fun. I'd like to come out for the next one (if my scedule permits).
Let me know when it happens.

After your meeting Rich stopped by my house. We didn't get much of a chance to build, but I did check out some of his models and and show hime some
unique items that I had in my collection. The only other time Rich was at my house was when I lived in VA, but that was a few days before I moved and
> 90% of my brick was packed away. Therefore it was fun to see my entire collection. He also fixed a problem I had with my caboose model for a year or so.
Here's some pics taken this morning before he left.
