Hi, Lugnet'ers. I've heard some people in Michagan are going to hold a Lego Fest, and am just wondering, how do you host one? What stuff do you need? How do you keep everyone's Legos seperate, so they don't get mixed up, and lastly, what do you need (...) (26 years ago, 26-Mar-99, to lugnet.build)

I volunteer my house! That way I won't have to drag around a bunch of LEGO stuff. I live within 3 blocks of where I-94 & I-696 merge in St. Clair Shores. So those coming from the Ann Arbor area can use I-94, those coming from western Michigan can (...) (26 years ago, 26-Mar-99, to lugnet.loc.us.mi.grr, lugnet.build)
