Cynthia Bradham and I are the Castle Room Coordinators for BrickFest 2006.
We are planning sessions for each day. Please give us your feedback.
Set up and staffing meeting: Castle fans meet to finalize the display and
discuss staffing of the castle area for the Saturday and Sunday expos.
Catapult Contest: We would like to standardize projectiles for the contest.
Basketballs and soccer balls would be small projectiles and Duplo balls
http://www.peeron.com/inv/parts/23065 would be the large projectiles. In
addition to the traditional distance competition, we plan on having an
accuracy competition. This would involve aiming projectiles through a board
with circles cut out of it. There would be awards for most accurate
catapults and longest shots.
Castle Set Trivia Contest: Compete in this trivia contest about LEGOLAND
Castle to win various classic sets.
Show and Tell: This is the traditional session where people introduce their
castle mocs to the group.
Castle Building Techniques: Several presenters discuss tips for creating
various castle spaces and details.
Castle Community Roundtable: This is a fan discussion about adding more
castle displays in lug events, increasing castle fan input to LEGO, and the
current state of the online castle community.
Do these sessions interest you? Are you likely to participate in the castle
contests? Would you like to help present a session? Is there another type
of session we should be holding?
We also need to begin planning the physical display. The layout will be a
rectangle made of tables with an open center for us to stand in and answer
the public’s questions. Please contact me at bellermnn@NOSPAMyahoo.com if
your castle moc is larger than two large grey base plates. These large mocs
will be placed on the rectangle’s corners and centers with smaller mocs
(including the CCC standard) in between.

I accidentally posted my follow up as the post subject. Do not hesitate to
contact Cyndi or I if you have any questions. Similar threads will also be
posted on Classic-Castle.com and LEGOfan.org.
