Any input on the theme(s) for our winter village for the Greenberg show? Will it be a conventional town, next to winter in the Shire, next to a snowball fight on Hoth, next to an Ice Planet “Light up Night” or what? Matt, will you create a map for it? Will it include a Polar Express or even some other vehicle that moves on tracks? Could white table cloths by used to save a huge expense of making a snowy foundation out of LEGO parts?
Greg, I would like to continue what you and I had been previously discussing in doing some sort of North Pole Village with Victorian houses and a possible Santa castle and workshop. I could probably come up with a half-decent Polar Express as we would definitely want movement (several loops of track would be ideal, especially for the Greenburg Show). We could also do a “regular” town decorated for Christmas using at least one of your churchs and some of my houses (some of which I had a KidsFest last year in my town display). The Polar Express could run on a loop between the North Pole Village and the Town (through a forest with white wolves, etc.). White table clothes would be an excellent idea and would help keep with the wintery theme.
We need to decide fairly soon how big of a display we want to do, both so we can start working on it and also so we can finalize the application for space to Greenburg. I have some ideas on that based on past train shows that I did with RichLUG and will post those ideas here soon.
