At the June meeting, we need to really work on what we want to do for the
Library display.  Hopefully, we can get into the case and get some
measurements.

I agree that the July display should definitely (and obviously) be our focus
of the next meeting.  Was there anything set up in the case when y'all were
last there?  In addition to measurements - if the case is empty maybe we
could go ahead and clean it out so that when we come back to set up at the
end of the month we don't have to waste time on that.

I am planing on displaying a town scene with some of my town buildings and
will be working this month to put something like that together so we can
look at it on June 2.  I would like to hear what others are planning.  Also,
we probably need to put together some signage (a Richlug sign - anyone got
any ideas about a Richlug logo? - and also some informational signs about
the display itself - i.e. approx. number of pieces, minifigs, etc.).

I still want to display my zeppelins (6 or 7) by hanging them from the
ceiling.  I'll be sure to get some screw-hooks before for this purpose.

I also have an idea for a creation that I haven't started on that would
occupy the space of 2 large gray baseplates.  My basic idea is to start with
a foundation of BURP's and build a tower like structure that would be a sort
of evolutionary scale moving from "rocks" to castle-like structures to town
buildings and capped off with futuristic space features. I can picture it in
my mind - now I just have to start building it.

Also, I did manage to grab one of the cardboard display cases from Kaybee at
VA Center Commons.  I think it could be used to add some height in the case
but there's not a whole lot of room for setting things on top of it.  I'll
bring it to the meeting so we can kick around ideas how to use it. I'm also
going back to see if I can grab the other one if they've finished selling
the adventurer sets that were displayed in that one.

I also had thought about the need for some signage identifying RichLUG.  If
nothing else just having a poster that gives some information about the
website and how interested folks can contact us would be good.  Even if we
don't have a logo by then we probably could at least spell out RichLUG with
some bricks like I did before.  I recently got a big box of Duplo bricks
that could be used and would make something large and readable.

Those are some of the ideas I'm kicking around.

Seven people total - 5 "regulars" and 2 guests (who are regular gamers and wanted to check out our Brikwars game). It was a really good meeting as Rich stated in his recap.
