I agree with Wayne - leave money out to keep it simple, especially for
starters. If things get more complex later on, like doing train shows with
communal resources like tables, bulk bricks, etc., we can cross that bridge
then.

Sounds good to me if everyone's comfy with that. Anybody in an
apartment/condo complex with a community building that they'd let us use?
I'll go for Wayne's idea or others either way, but I think Syracuse is a
locical place. I like NELUG's theme built around meeting at a local pub or
restaurant after some LEGO shopping/scouting. Anybody know of any places
like that in Syr?
