    We are going to have an epic LEGO COMPETITION for our first meeting of the year! WT/Navs - Bring your own Lego pieces to use in your building area, so that they don't get mixed in with other Trailmen's pieces. (Please limit the amount that you bring to approximately a gallon sized ziplock bag or shoebox of individual pieces, no pre-built structures.) The Adventurers will be coming up with creative challenges, and the Navs have the choice to compete or help out the Adventurers. Note: If you don't have your own Legos, some of the other troop families will be bringing extras. This is going to be FUN! Our partner American Heritage Girls troop will be having their Open House at the same time, so we'd love for you to invite friends and bring your whole family to check out both groups.
