My LUG, Sacramento Brick Builders, has a contingent going since it's just a 2 hour drive for us. There are at least 5 or 6 of us on this forum :)
Thanks for the heads-up, raven. I saw the link to this event last year but was too chained to the house to go.
The non-public Friday and Saturday days have already been sold out, but the Sunday -the public day for viewing models, purchasing from vendors, and general mingling - is still open.

The sales area was a little different than I expected. There were definitely booths with merchandise at collector's prices. I walked in and then walked out -- wide-eyed. The build-a-minifigure booth was good for me. Also, I didn't know fabric capes and shawls were that high-end of a product!
In general, it was mostly a boy's shopping haven. I realized later I didn't see as many girls going ga-ga at the sales booths. All very well-behaved kids. Nice to see all that stimulating imagination and imagination stimulated.
