It's a pretty small store, actually, a very, very small store. I'm not
the greatest at measurements, but I would guess the store is only 30
feet wide,
maybe less.
As of today they haven't been running any ads in the paper.
I'm surprised they are not having this in their Barrington store, its a
little bigger.

I'm surprised that you say its a small store.  I figured cause of the size
of the website the store would be bigger :)  It just seems like for a place
to hold an event with a TLG representative and other events as advertised
on the site the facility would have to be bigger.

I'm not sure if we'll be going, we have football pictures at 10:00 and
then we
have to be in Lake Zurich by 2:00 for our first game. (Our 5 year old is
on a
flag football team, they've only had 2 practices...should be
interesting.)
Anyway....
The last time I was at the store was in June/July and everything on the
shelf
was current stock...no pirates as I was hoping for.

If anyone goes...post what I missed.

Ok...will do.  Sorry ya can't make it.

If so, could you email me and we could arrange a way to identify ourselves etc to be able to meet face-to-face. *sigh* Crystal Lake is like a 40 mile drive from (...)
