Welcome
Please note that most of the LUG activity on our site takes place in the Forums. Members and the wider AFOL public are always talking about everything to do with LEGO®, so feel free to check it out.
We are NOT to be confused with The LEGO® Group of companies. We do NOT represent them in any manner, nor do they endorse, sponsor or authorize the VLC. We are simply enthusiasts, builders, hobbyists and consumers of the many wonderful things that The LEGO® Group produces.
