Another first timer from NJ:
I have been on this online community for a couple of years. And was always
impressed by how wonderful the people treated each other online. Always
constructive criticism and compliments flow from everyone's posts. And as
always I was impressed by the talent and artistic-ness of the community.
Then I went to Brickfest DC 2004.
I have been to gaming conventions, Star Trek Conventions and Embroidery
conventions.
I have never met a more welcoming, enthusiastic, happy, bunch of people before.
I am so glad to have had that experience.
The most important thing I learned, thank you DelVaLUG, was that it is easy to
get involved and start up LUG's if there is none in your area. And that you
could just start with a couple of people if you wanted.
I even realised that without knowing it I was a contributor to the AFOL
community. I work with the local school to compete in a local robotics
competition using Mindstorms kits.
I also learned there is a First Lego League competition locally that I could be
involved in.
I learned so much at Brickfest I can't even list it all here.
Thank you for being you! To everyone in this community, you are special people.
Oh and by the way SPACE
