Here we go again in Portland! Just over 2 months till Brickfest PDX 2007!!

Frank Filz, Brendan Mauro, and I are coordinating the Castle display along with other Historical (Pirate, Adventurers, Wild West, etc.). We’ve got plenty of room in Convention Center so we’d like to make this display bigger than the one we had at NWBC. The combined Castle display at NWBC was a huge success using CCC, Base8, and unique creations. If you’re planning on attending and depending on the theme please e-mail us, reply here, or join in the discussion over at Classic-Castle and let us know if you’re interested or not in participating in a combined display. Also please let us know what you’re planning on bringing so we can get a general idea of how much area we’re going to request. Based on the response we’re getting over at Classic-Castle this is going to be a very large combined display.

We’d like to plan for a fun time to be had by all so send us your ideas for events you’d like to see happen. We’ll have Show ‘n Tell, Castle Community Roundtable, and most likely a Landscaping discussion. Please let us know what else you’d like to do. If you’d like to do a particular session or contest just let us know and we’ll help make it happen.

We’ll most likely start a separate email list for planning the actual display so to keep the final presentation a bigger surprise. We’ve got to keep those Train guys guessing!

We’ve got plenty of time for planning and building so start brainstorming those ideas for creating one of the most exciting Castle displays ever!!!

BrickFest PDX 2007 Castle and Historical Coordinators

I just want to follow up on one (ok two) things:

Pirates pirates pirates pirates pirates Pirates PIRATES!!!!!

We are planning an actual, honest to goodness pirate DISPLAY. We’re talking Imperials and Buccaneers unloading broadsides into eachother, fleets of Islander catamarans, shoreside sword fights, the works! But in order for that to happen, we need people to bring stuff! Ships, islands, harbors, etc, and lots and lots of blue baseplates. It doesn’t even have to be a MOC, if you’ve got a Carribean Clipper or Forbidden Island lying around collecting dust, bring it! This theme has been under-appreciated for far too long!

Also, if you’d like to contribute to the castle display, please (1) email me at breadman017 at gmail dot com so I can add you to the display planning mailing list, and (2) hit the afformentioned thread on classic castle and pick a MOC flag color.

Cheers! I mean, yarrrr!
