To all,
ULUG participated in a weekend Scout Jamborall in Weber County.
The show was a great success but incredibly exhausting and short. 7 of us, as
everyone knows who goes to train shows, spent 10 hours setting up and two hour
taking down for a 6 hour show. :0.
However, during the 6 hours we were mobbed by scouts! The ages were 8-16, the
perfect age group, and they loved every inch.
Most of the reason we considered participating was the available space. Usually
at train shows, we are fighting for space, but at the Jamborall we were given
40 x 50 which was our largest lay-out by about two times. It was sweet to
just have space.
As a LUG we have been concentrating on transitions and unique buildings for our
city. We feel that this lay-out was our personal best and are excited about our
upcoming show this weekend in Heber at the Day out with Thomas event.
Here is the main gallery:

Some of the highlights for the show were:
1- SNOT Roads
2- Our First Skyscraper
3- An event Build
4- Our LUG has specialized in the I Spy.. game were we have lists of items to
find in our lay-out posted on the rope barriers. For this show 12 of the 100
items were scouts in various places
Comments are welcome.

I noticed a cafe corner in the layout from the pictures that I didn't even see when I was there. one time I saw a comment that the cafe corner would dominate more simple buildings that (...)

| (...) Excellent stuff! I think the monorail looks really cool here. I find that lots of times, though I am sure crowds like monorails, they look out of place on many layouts. Not here though IMO. Little details like the telephone poles along the (...) (18 years ago, 21-May-07, to lugnet.org.us.ulug, FTX)
