LEGOLAND® California fans were able to purchase a piece of LEGOLAND history. Several LEGO® models were on sale on eBay with proceeds benefiting the Foundation for Positively Kids, a Las Vegas based non-profit agency dedicated to developing services that provide comprehensive care for Nevada’s medically fragile and terminally ill children.
The New England Harbor was removed to make way for Miniland Las Vegas, which opened March 29, 2007. “The city of Las Vegas is recognized around the world for its famous iconic structures and we wanted to give Park guests a chance to see the Las Vegas Strip in a family-friendly environment,” said President and General Manager John Jakobsen. “LEGOLAND is honored to give Park enthusiasts the chance to own a piece of the New England Harbor and to support the children of Las Vegas through the Foundation for Positively Kids.”
Thank you to all the LEGOLAND California supporters who helped raise money during the New England Model Auction. With your help LEGOLAND California was able to raise more than $14,000 for charity!
Just in case you want the link;
Bet you will never guess where these boats are now. Yup in Bellaire, OHIO!!!

Museum needs your help.

I know we have only been open for a few weeks, but we need your help.

This winter is going to be a doosey, and we need help finding funds to hook up the furnace and get some banked money for the pending bills. I would hate to have to reduce our hours to afford the heating bills, but reality is reality and I am making a public plee now vs. when we are in major money problems.

We need you help to find a grant writer, or foundation that can help us get through this with our skin in tact.

Thanks for any help
