Sad to report IFCon Cancelled

For those who were looking forward to the IFCon event this weekend (October 31-November 1, 2015) at Pearkes please be advised the event has been cancelled.

We are deeply disappointed and had looked forward to a fantastic display featuring the Halls of both Justice and Doom and the “Battle of Bricktoria”. This feast of super-hero/comic-book/movie goodness will hopefully be incorporated into our Family Day event in Sidney next February.

For any further information on the cancellation you should seek answers @ ifconvictoria.com/.

Post CBT

Cherry Bomb was great as always! We were in a slightly different location and it worked out wonderful for the public build, pictures will follow soon.
I wanted to get a post up quick so anyone who is coming to the site sees that we are actually here! For the most part club members are active in the forums. If you had talked to anyone at the show about joining VicLUG please write to lego@viclug.ca and we can go from there.
Our next public meeting is on Oct. 19th, time and place details to follow, and our next event is Ifcon on Oct. 31-Nov-1st at Pearkes.

The Train Show 2015

Hi All of you,
This is our next big show, at the Juan de Fuca Rec Centre, on the 24th of May. The show runs 10 am – 4 pm, Adults $7, Youth (11-16) $3, Family $14, Children under 8 free with an adult. There will be a fairly complicated track plan for this year, involving 6 bridges and 2 grade crossings. (and hopefully, no minifig carnage !)

VicLUG will be at the 6th Gottacon on Feb. 27th to Mar. 1st at the downtown Victoria Convention Centre. We’ll be running VicWars, Lego D20 plus our kid build zone and a board games table.
