Lots of MOCs, including Steven's Subaru wagon, Lino's new bug, Catherine's
Leavenworth, and Justin's army of zombies.
Steve had an assortment of the parts currently available at Pick-a-Brick
in Bellevue

including DkBrown half-arches, Clear 1x6x5 panels, TrLtBlue 1x2x5 bricks,
Black 1x8 tiles, Green 1x4 tiles, and Clear and TrDkOrange cheese slopes.
The Lego Store is apparently once more without a manager. Mary, Soren,
and Drew are the "old" people running it for now.
There will be no SEALUG meeting in October. Thomas Rafert is looking for
a location for November, but anyone who is interested in hosting should
volunteer soon.
Currently, Dan Herrmann is in the Window on the Community. His display
will be great but no longer topical after October 5. Any volunteers for
October and November?
BrickCon is next month. You know this already.

The draft set will be 5972 Space Heist

There are currently 195 registered attendees. You have until September 15
to preregister online or you won't get a badge or all the other goodies
that require advance notice. Ideas for sessions need to get to Thomas
Garrison. . .um. . .now. You must pre-submit your MOCs through the
website for them to be eligible for voting and, hence, awards. A few
awards still need to be made.
Thomas Rafert has made posters/bookmark holders for area Fred Meyers.
Those wanting additional posters or bookmarks can contact Wayne.
