Lego Artist from NEOLUG show Christmas creations at FOX8’s 17th Annual Operation Giving Tree

Events, LEGO Creations, Media

It was snow filled cloudy day, and NEOLUG members strapped on their snowshoes and hiked 2 or more miles uphill in the snow with their MOCs strapped to their backs.  Their destination:  FOX8’s front yard to participate in the 17th Annual Operation Giving Tree event.  Upon arrival NEOLUG’s LEGO artists setup a Christmas winter scene display for all the attending children (and adult children at heart) to say – “Yeah, Olaf is here!!”.

Despite the less than cooperative weather, the event was well attended and a glowing success for the charitable event.  Folks from the community drove up and helped out Santa by giving generous donations to support needy families in 5 local counties.  When the event ended, NEOLUG put back on their snowshoes, and hiked 2 or miles uphill filled with the warmth of the happy folks attending the event.  Whichever Holiday you celebrate, may it be joy and happiness.
