I have no place to host such an event but I might be able to assist (if
needed) with organization and would attend such an event if at all
possible.  What goes on at such an event?  When I get together with my
wine buddies we drink wine, talk about wine, and then argue about
politics.  Do we get together and build with, talk about, shop for,
trade, etc., LEGO (and argue about politics)?

The agenda would be defined by the attendees, although it would probably change
in reality.

How big does such a thing need to be?  Do five people get together at
someone's house, or do we try for forty and rent a VFW hall or
something?  Is it five hours on a Saturday, or does it start Friday
night and end Sunday afternoon?

I think start small and grow.  Maybe an afternoon/evening for 4-8 people
(which is all my apartment could hold).  But in any case, avoid political
discussions  :')


I would think that within driving distance of NYC, there would be tons
of people who would wish to participate.

Last 2 times I attempted, I got 2 respsonses from people in the NYC area.

(...) How long ago? Where did you advertise? Seems like all the NJ newsgroups, NYC, and CT would be reasonable ad venues as well as rtl. Count me as a response. Anyone else out there interested? --Chris (25 years ago, 2-Sep-99, to lugnet.loc.us.nj.new, lugnet.loc.us.nj.tre, lugnet.loc.us.ny.ny)

(...) 3 months pass... Today I wondered (not for the first time) if anybody has tried to organize a Lego get together around NYC, and I found this thread. Ed, if you want to try organizing again, I'll put my name in. I live in Queens. That might (...) (25 years ago, 12-Dec-99, to lugnet.loc.us.nj.new, lugnet.loc.us.nj.tre, lugnet.loc.us.ny.ny)
