Correction, that was the internal code name! Here is more detail:

As most of you know, BricksWest was held in mid February in both 2002 and
2003... unfortunately BricksWest will not be able to continue next year.

Ondrew Hartigan won the ISD but announced that he would be splitting it 10 ways
with the other participants.

That's it, the general session adjourned.

(...) Interesting. So those of us who would likely be involved in attempting to set an event up are conveniently left out of the loop while the event itself is moved more than 1000 miles north of it's original location and well out of the realm of (...)

  BrickFest Portland 2004
 
Hi... I just talked to Steve (and others) about this topic.

<snip> Why Portland???? What possible draw is Portland???? To me the draw of BW was LLCA!! I'm not one of those 'same old, same old', but I can understand that feeling. To be fair, another draw IS the store/being able to buy sets there as well as (...) (21 years ago, 10-Aug-03, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.events.brickswest, lugnet.org.ca.nalug)
