It's hard to organise a big event, but a push in the right direction could
help: wouldn't TLC be interested to sponsor if the community organises
something similar?
I mean, they could sponsor bricks and perhaps exhibition space (I don't know
if Legoland Carlsbad has some halls for events like this) and let members of
the community (or a LUG?) organise the whole thing. I mean it's a good
opportunity for them(TLC) to meet a different target audience than the kids
they usually design their stuff for.
I haven't planned my next vacation yet but such event would be a good reason
to visit the US :-)
