Hello all,
SacBB, the Sacramento Brick Builders, will have its monthly
meeting on Saturday, March 5th, from 11AM-3PM at the
Arden-Dimmick Library. Our
meeting will include the usual sharing of MOCs, BrikWars, and this time, a

Anything you can think of that’s associated with the season of spring is
fair game. We’ll have prizes for a 12-and-under category, and an over-12
category. All members (including new members signing up at the meeting) will
be eligible for prizes and to vote.
We expect quite a few new members due to our recent

See you all soon! And Happy Building!
