In case you did not know, LEGO has now posted the Brick Specialist Position for Toronto. Brick Specailist Jeff VW

You should contact Jenn Wagner about the contest and/or Bricksnorth. I haven't been involved with this event since last year.

I just replied on the other thread about this.. Jeff VW

I have not been involved with this event since late last year. You should check with Jenn Wagner (thebrickchick) who is running the event.

I would say the opposite, to me having intimate product knowledge would be a bonus to the employer. Jeff VW

What TRU Location was this at? Jeff VW

No need to guess anymore, This is an official Lego store. http://www.jobsatlego.com/ca/toronto/view-all/assistant-manager-lego-brand-retail-toronto-jobs :) Jeff VW

Yes, it will only be viewable from the windows. When we set everything up we tried to tier it so that everything is viewable. We had considered opening it up fur viewing but the room is pretty full, and there is not a lot of room to walk around. I hope you get a chance to check it out. Jeff VW

Mastermind sent an email out last week saying they had series 3 in stock.. And if anyone is out in the St. Jacobs area the Toy Building Zone has LOTS of series 3 figs.. And by lots, I mean they will not be running out any time soon.. http://www.toybuildingzone.com/ Also starting this weekend, there will be a Lego display put on by the Ontario Brick Builders right next door. This display will hopefully be on display till the end of March (Unless the space gets rented out) for more info on the OBB: http://ontariobrickbuilders.blogspot.com/ Jeff VW LEGO Ambasador: WHaCK-O-LuG Member of Ontario Brick Builders (OBB), rtlToronto.

That's me, Sorry I have not been around much for that past (few years) I used to follow this group religiously when it was on FBTB, but when FBTB changes forums(?) I was unaware on where it moved to... On a separate note, Is there a listing some where of where everyone is from? I recognize a few of your names, but I have been wondering for a while if there were any AFOL's or TFOL's near Orangeville?? Jeff VW Orangeville, Ontario

Posted on Behalf of Jenn Wagner ( jenn AT thebrickchick DOT com) BricksNorth where: Downtown Toronto, Ontario Canada at the Delta Chelsea Hotel. when: August 25-28th, 2011 Hello everybody!! Some of you may have heard that Canada will be getting a LEGO fan convention in 2011 called BricksNorth. I am so pleased to be able to be a part of such a worthwhile enterprise!! I sure hope I can pull this off as Canada has many challenges...as does my schedule! But I am fortunate to have the help of many terrific local AFOLs and the advice of my esteemed fellow North American event coordinators so I’m not too worried. (yet!) I do have a very very full plate lately and it is of the utmost importance that the BricksNorth website gets put up very soon. So many people seem want to get on the attendance list and I’d like to give them that opportunity as soon as possible. To do so I need your help to get a LOGO designed for the event. Here’s what I propose! I need ideas from you all. Anyone who submits the chosen idea for the BricksNorth logo will win a $50 gift certificate to be used in my BrickLink store www.thebrickchick.com. IF the winning idea is submitted as finished artwork that needs little revising then the prize increases to $100 to spend in my store. So bring on your imaginative ideas!! I need them desperately so I can get things rolling. Not much has been decided outside of the dates and venue for this event so it’s wide open to whatever you think this should be. Canadian is an important consideration of course...and the location is Toronto but that needs not play a big role. The deadline for submissions is Monday June 14th at midnight EST so that my right hand man Jeff Van Winden and I can discuss the results for ten hours on our drive to BrickWorld the following day. LOL Good luck everyone! And feel free to pass this around or post it to any other forums/groups you frequent. Anything you can do to help is very very much appreciated. Please Post you entry (or a link to your entry) Here. Jenn Wagner http://www.thebrickchick.com

Thanks for the Info everyone, I am currently compiling the data and will be sending it back to LEGO shortly. Jeff VW Lego Ambassador
