Hi all,
This is just a reminder that our monthly Sacramento Brick Builders
meeting will be this Saturday, January 29th, from 11AM-3PM, at the
Arden-Dimmick Library, 891 Watt Ave.
I spoke to a Sacramento Bee reporter this morning for quite a
while, and they will definitely have someone at our meeting to take photos
and talk to us for an article! Please bring plenty of creations and
imagination!

Hi all,
Sacramento Brick Builders' October meeting will be held Saturday, Oct. 30th,
from 10-4 at the Arden-Dimmick Library. We will have two building contests:
1. Build with the set 4101 taken home from the previous meetings. We distributed
copies of this set to paying members and have asked them to build anything using
only the parts in that set.
2. Halloween building contest. Build anything halloween related with your own
bricks, and bring it in. Paying members will be eligible for prizes and to vote
on winners in categories for those 12 and under, and 13+. Up to two entries per
contestant will be allowed.
The library is at
891 Watt Ave (cross of Northrop)
Just take highway 50 to the Watt Ave. exit and head north until you hit
Northrop. Make a left onto Northrop and the library is there on the southwest
corner.
See you all there!

Hi all,
As some of you know, I just moved to Davis from Maryland. I drove down
(way, way down) to the Sept. 6 BayLUG meeting. It is quite a drive from the
Sacramento area down to Fremont, so I am trying to gauge if there is any
interest in forming either an independed Sacramento LUG, or an offshoot of
sorts from BayLUG, something like BayLUG-North. If you have any thoughts,
requests, opinions, etc. please either post to the group or you can email
me directly at gal@physics.ucdavis.edu .
Build on!
Roy
