ColonialLUG is known for its interactive activities at public events. Since we started as a LUG over 10 years ago, our members have been designing large big-build models personalized to an event. Members of the public are given instructions and endless containers filled with basic 2x4 bricks which they use to create "expanded bricks." These upscaled parts are assembled into a complex model by ColonialLUG builders throughout an event.
