This is a new venue, a new event and a new name! With the loss of Southerland Station, we're moving to a new venue which is a big milestone for the club since that's where it all started way back in December of 2007. While we'll miss our friends at Southerland, this is a big step up for us in terms of available space which will make this the largest LEGO show Huntsville has ever seen!

Here's what we're planning:

Town & Train

Micropolis

Great Ball Contraption

Mindstorms

MOCs

Rocket City Junior Club

Bingo, pics with Emmett, Santa & Mrs Claus, plus other events and giveaways for the public

This will be a ticketed event and all proceeds after expenses will be donated to the Making Connections Autism Spectrum Disorder Networking Group.
