If you are part of a LUG that meets regularly, I'd highly recommend trying a
simple gift exchange of this sort.  We made sure to keep the size and cost down,
so everyone could take part.  I heard from a number of people that they enjoyed
the challenge of building to please someone else's tastes.  There is even some
talk of doing the whole thing again at some time in the summer of 2005.

I'd like to thank all of the ParLUGment members who took part in the project.
It was a lot of fun to take part in, and no trouble to organise.  As I said at
the meeting, I did it because this way I was certain to get at least _one_ Lego
gift this holiday season!  Special thanks to Janey and Doug, our two
"long-distance" members, who went through the extra trouble to get their gift
MOCs to Ottawa (or, strictly speaking, Gatineau, across the river in Quebec)
even when they themselves could not be present.

Best wishes to all the other Lego builders out there.  In this occasionally
mixed-up world, may you find a bit of joy playing with Lego, whether you build
for yourself or for others.


All the best,


Norbert Black

Norbert,

This is a great idea! I'm going to have to keep this in mind for my club next
year...

I really like the idea of building something for someone, even if it's not
someone I would know very well...I tend to like those presents that come from
the heart, and taking the time and effort to build a model is pretty heartfelt.

And may all of you up north have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Joe Meno

Hello to one and all I promised the members of ParLUGment I'd post something about the Secret Santa project that we undertook this year. Since Christmas day is approaching like an oncoming express train, I suppose I'd better get around to it. :) (...)
