Hey all!
It’s time to start talking about BrickFair 2010.
Some of you may ask, “What’s BrickFair?”
So, if you haven’t heard here’s a quick FAQ for you:
1) BrickFair is an annual “Brick Event,” held in the
Washington D.C. area.
2) BrickFair 2010 dates are: Registrants: Aug 5-8. Public dates: Aug 7-8.
3) BrickFair is (for the most part) staffed by many of the same people who have
in the past also staffed BrickFest, when it was held in the Washington D.C.
area.
4) BrickFair 2010 is being staged at a new (to us) facility;
The Dulles Expo Center.
5) BrickFair selects a unifying theme each year for builders and exhibitors to
align with; this year’s theme is – MUSIC.
6) BrickFair is a not for profit event, that supports (specifically)
The SladeChild Foundation.
7) BrickFair succeeds due to the overwhelming support of the Registrants
assisting the BrickFair Staff, to put on a great show.
New this year:
1) Larger display space: The Dulles Expo Center has the largest floor space that
any event (in this area at least) has previously had. We will have over 50,000
sq ft, plus conference rooms for “Brick Films,” seminars, and “Stay and Play.”
2) Video Games.
3) A moon bounce (bouncy castle, for our European friends), (intended for public
day).
4) Yard Sale (for those Registered). Bring your unwanted brick to the yard sale
and have many captive customers available to take those bricks off your hands.
Conversely, find that rare piece that you’ve been looking for that’s never
available (on say, Bricklink) without spending $20, just
for shipping.
Plus lot’s more!
We’re hoping that you come and see what all we have in store this year.
If you’ve already registered, but still want to help us help ourselves, there
are still a few ways that you can lend a hand; have a look
here. Or, contact me directly at my
email.
If you haven’t registered yet, please consider volunteering. We know that you
don’t get anything for free, so there are some perks to volunteering, the least
of which is community recognition from the BrickFair participants.
So, thanks in advance. And we’ll see you all soon.
Have Fun!
C-Ya!
Rich
BrickFair,
Volunteer Coordinator
