On display now through March 18, 2014:
We installed our display in the King Of Prussia LEGO store tonight! Check it out next time you're in the store - see if you can find Frodo, Doctor Who, characters from The LEGO Movie; Santa and his reindeer - or what's left of them....
Thanks to everyone who contributed to building it and helping to install it tonight!
While you're there, check out the new LEGO sets from the movie! The ice cream truck and the flying flusher are fun to build and play with! Also, the new Friends Mia's Lemonade stand - those chocolate chip cookies and green scooter are so cute!

"Bricks for Books" Carnival FUNdraiser: A Big Success!
The Carnival FUNdraiser for Wm. Jeanes Memorial Library was a lot of fun! We raised a little over $1900! Thanks to everyone who visited all the activities (upstairs and downstairs, over 700 people!) and especially to those who volunteered their time and energy! Check out our Events page for more pictures!
Some pictures from the carnival: games, food, big build and finally, Elmer!
ColonialLUG members created the library's logo. It was on display upstairs during the month of August and is now downstairs. Stop by to see it!
"Tonto" loved at BrickFair VA 2013!
Our Tonto Stand-in was a hit with children as well as adults!
LUG display gets nomination for award!
Our "Summer Playground" that we built for the LEGO store display was nominated for a Brickee Award at BrickFair VA 2013 in the Best Vignette category! Although we didn't win, it was nice to be acknowledged! Way to go everybody! To see it up-close, come to the Carnival in September where it will be on display with some of our other MOCs. Also, check out our Events page for other pictures from BrickFair VA 2013!

ColonialLUG Sponsors LEGO® Brand Retail Store LUG Display!
ColonialLUG has built their first ever LUG display, housed in the LUG box at the LEGO Brand Retail Store.
We built a summertime playground, complete with port-a-potty, sandbox, and tree house. Keep an eye out for the banner plane, which flies our LUG information, and be sure to stop by the grill after you retrieve the kite from the tree. Watch the man walk his dog, and play pirates with the children on the jungle gym. And if you stay out late, find your way back to the benches and lamp where your parents are sitting. Have fun!
