Hi

With all the talk about a west coast Brickfest, it made me wonder if anyone
would be willing to go to a national event.  An event where east can meet
west.  I think there should be a west coast BrickFest first of all.  You
guys need a regional time and place to meet and show off your stuff.  When I
first discovered that there was a whole web community for Lego, I saw
creations from many people east, west, and overseas as well.  I think a
national event where we can all meet and show off some our stuff would be
great.  I think it would be cool to have a really large train town layout
made from everybodys stuff. To say the least there are many possibilities.
We could even hold it in Las Vegas.  A place cheap enough to fly to, and has
many facilities for conventions already.

Anyone have any thoughts on this?

We train folk happen to be organizing our own national train club convention
which we hope to make an annual event, which would move around the country every
year.

But I agree with Lar-- Brickfest, in essence, *is* a national event.  It is very
helpful to hold an event where there exists a host group.  Personally, I can't
think of anywhere I'd like to go *less* than Las Vegas...
