BrickFest, the largest AFOL event in North America, is three months away.
Registration for the event opened over a week ago, with many people already
registering and planning to attend the Fest.
http://dc.brickfest.com/registration/index.php

This year marks the 5 anniversary of BrickFest. From a meeting of 60+ people in
2000 to a convention of more than 230 in 2003, BrickFest has become the premier
AFOL event in the US, and this year will be no different, with displays and
seminars going on throughout the three days of the Fest.

BrickFest became "the" AFOL event in the US because of community participation
and support, and there will be many projects for the community to take part in,
such as:

• the Town/Train layout - Make a module to place in the display at BrickFest.
Contact James Trobaugh

• the BrickFest MicroTown Project –Build a model of your house in microscale.
(bigger isn’t always better ;-) A 1x1 round brick is the size of a figure at
microscale. If you are not interested in building your house, then build your
dream house, your place of work or your favorite store, for a community layout
that will show the community neighborhood in a fun way!

• the Moonbase Project - Make a module to place in a Moonbase group display at
BrickFest. Contact Jon Palmer

• the BrickFest MOC Flyin - Bring in a flight - oriented model to be in a group
display. Historical and modern aircraft are welcome, including X-planes. There
will be a timeline of flight where the models will be displayed. Contact Joe
Meno

• the BrickFest Mosaic Build - Be part of making a large mosaic of the nation's
monuments with others by building a segment and bringing it to BrickFest. (this
is in the works but not yet confirmed)

• the Derek's Mom Project!! – Contact Derek Schin or anyone else that went to
BrickFest PDX.

And there's more, but BrickFest is only on the horizon...so stay tuned! And join
the celebration that is BrickFest! http://dc.brickfest.com/community.php


Registration ends August 1. Any questions can be sent to info@brickfest.com
