Anyone going? Sounds like it’s quite the skill toy convention! Planning on bringing my kiddos and wondering if anyone has been before and what to expect! We can only make the open gym time, but its something to get kids some fun activity here in the dead of winter! ---

Looks fun. Nowhere near me but I’ve envisioned a craft fair like event for skill toys for years but can’t fathom how to make it work in the DC metro area with how expensive venues are here. ---

Right, looks like this is meeting in a middle school gym! Sounds affordable to me. I know nothing of DC though.
