I just received this note from a colleague at LEGOLAND California.

LEGOLAND California needs Rebel Recruits!

During the weekend of April 30 - May 1, LEGOLAND California will be hosting the LEGO Star Destroyer Building Competition, where an attempt will be made to break the current speed build record. The

During this weekend event, we’ll attempt to break the current record of 54 minutes and 22 seconds held by the members of the New England LEGO Users Group (NELUG).

(The Final Build Time set last weekend during Star Wars Celebration III in Indianapolis was 1 hour 23 minutes!)

Rebel Builders need to be on-site at LEGOLAND from 12:30 pm – 3:30 pm on Saturday and/or Sunday. Teams consist of 10 Rebel Builders each day. All Team Members will receive return tickets to LEGOLAND California, and a gift bag with Star Wars collectibles.

If you are interested in being a part of the LEGOLAND Rebel Building Team, please send an email to Chrystal Richuisa at LEGOLAND California, chrystal.richuisa@america.lego.com for your chance to break the record!

The Star Destroyer Building Competition is just one of several Star Wars Weekend Event activities on April 30 - May 1 -- check out www.legoland.com for more event information.

Now I’d hate to see the East Coasters talking smack about how the West Coasters couldn’t muster enough members for a team. That’d be rough to hear. Funny, but rough, nonetheless.

(...) Not being from the east coast OR the west coast, I really don't care who holds the record, as long as we can keep in in the US! :) (...) The build at Celebration III was a bit different from other speed builds, because about half the team (...) (20 years ago, 26-Apr-05, to lugnet.legoland.california, lugnet.lego, FTX)

(...) Jake- Depends how much you want to handicap us! David Michon and Thomas Michon were both under 18 when they helped set the (then) current US record at BrickFest last August. When I communicated with LLCA about this IDS event, I was told that (...) (20 years ago, 27-Apr-05, to lugnet.legoland.california, lugnet.lego, FTX)
