In addition to these meetings, we are hoping to do another Part Draft this summer, and we will have a sort day when our LUGBulk order comes in. Watch this space for updates!
New members welcome – lets try and make this one a little more fun and a little less business – bring a build or set to show off, bring some figs or spare parts to trade!
Hi all – Happy New Year, and welcome to our new members! It’s been a minute since we had an update, so let’s talk about what we have coming up in 2023.
If you are waiting for the next update on LUGBulk – so are we. We should see the parts list by mid January, and we will move fast when that happens. Next steps are:
Watch this space and your email, we will need to move fast!
We will be at the Holiday Inn on March 31-April 1. Save the Dates!
If you are planning on having a table to display your LEGO Builds, we will be taking signups shortly. We’ve also had some interest from kids who’d like to display, so we will be discussing how that’s going to work.
Meetings will continue – we want to try and have a meeting about once a month, so we will be scheduling something soon.
We will also be bringing back monthly build challenges – if you have an idea for a theme, post in the comments!
This is a really different one – we are doing a cross-Canada collaboration project, and our LUG was paired with Mid-Island LUG from Vancouver Island. So we want to see some builds based from there!
This one might need some research on your part! They did give us some ideas and starting points though:
Due date is August 20, and we are going to actually bring these builds together for a photoshoot if possible (if it’s not possible, we will figure something out then). Submit pictures on your build to newfoundlug@gmail.com.
Happy Building!
Drop by and hang out with your fellow LUG Members!
Agenda:
The 4th Annual NewfoundLUG Showcase will be a display of unique builds using LEGO bricks. Formally located in the Bricks & Minifigs store Location, we have outgrown the area and will now be in the Holiday Inn. There will be displays, activities, Door Prizes and Bricks & Minifigs will have a retail area at the event.
NewfoundLUG will have a manned display at Avalon Expo 7, Sat-Sun, Sept. 18-19, 2021, Holiday Inn, Portugal Cove Road, St. John’s, NL, Canada. Here are some quick notes:
We have now posted our Table Staff Sign Up Sheet to Google Drive. We ask that any interested/participating LUG members type their name into their preferred time slots for the weekend. This really helps us organize and schedule the event.
Since this will be more of a “shift-work” type event, we would strongly recommend filling out a display card and small write-up on your sets/MOCs so guests can read about your display even if you are not present.
Links to the sign up sheet and display cards posted on our FB page and in our September newsletter.
Reach out with any questions!
Our next event and first since the pandemic is coming up on August 28th and 29th, 2021!

Hi all!
Well, it sure is an unprecedented time in history right now. While we are all self-isolating, there’s still stuff to do!
On May 6th, 2020 at 6pm, NewfoundLUG will hold its Annual General Meeting. We will be electing the Executive for the next two years, and taking care of any business that needs the voice of the membership.
That meeting will be telepresence meeting – the specific technology has yet to be determined. If you can’t attend, please consider a voting proxy, someone you trust who will submit a vote for you on any discussion topics. Ensure your voice is heard!
To ensure you are notified of how the meeting will be conducted, look on Facebook or email newfoundlug-AT-gmail-DOT-com to let us know you are interested.
As well, we are going to be running a series of small, themed builds with a draw for a set. Stay tuned for those, or check us out on Facebook for more news and discussion!
