Brickfest Cancelled

Post by plums_deify »

Hey, CC!

Figured I'd post this here for ya'll. If you were looking forward to PDX this spring, I am sorry to disappoint.

It was announced that Brickfest 2011 is cancelled.

Oh, thanks for posting this. I hadn't seen it elsewhere. My husband had actually encouraged a trip for all of us to go to BrickFest and to visit Portland. Ah, well. I guess it'll be BrickCon in October again. 8)

I forgot reply earlier, but I was disappointed about this. I actually was going to be able to go this year. Oh well.

I am really disappointed that BF was canceled because I haven't been able to make it to BrickCon recently and I might not for the next couple of years, either (depending on where I decide to go to college). Oh well, I guess I'll make it when I make it to one.

Sadly I was going to skip Portland and save for BBtB 2012 so now that it is this year I don't think it's gonna happen for me unless one of my lotto tickets comes in. :)

San Francisco is just a tad bit farther away than Portland.... Alas! Alack! O dainty duck! O dear!
