Correct. The play area Lego donated to NALUG first appeared at
Supertrain 2001, and then at GETS 2001. It is still available for
play areas at future train shows.

next year and help SALUG so that a play area will be possible. NALUG
members (including myself) were at Supertrain 2001 and we are grateful
for the help and hospitality offered by show organizers.
