LEGO-Fest Fundraiser Builds Future for Library [PHOTOS]

Westchester residents flocked to Larchmont to see a 300-foot LEGO display.

Children of all ages came to the Village Center at the Larchmont Public Library to view a 300 square foot LEGO display Saturday and help to raise funds for the library at the same time.

Local sponsors joined with the Friends of the Larchmont Public Library to host the event which included a 30-foot-by-10-foot city display built entirely from LEGO pieces including an airport, farm, downtown and a running railroad.

The event also featured "Seek and Find" challenges for kids and raffles with LEGO sets as prizes. The display was built by I LUG NY, an adult club of LEGO fans with members from across the New York Metro area.

Okay but let's focus on the charter of the BOE. The Board of Education believes its primaryRead More responsibility should focus on creating an educational environment that will help our students become knowledgeable individuals, problem-solvers, quality producers, effective communicators, wholesome individuals, collaborative workers, ethical individuals, life-long learners, and responsible, accepting and involved citizens. We remain committed to providing a high quality, well-balanced educational program that supports our faculty and staff and helps our students meet and exceed State standards as well as high district goals. It says nothing about protecting the investments of taxpayers by voting "no" on every expenditure. We need forward thinking, broad minded individuals to help guide educational direction of our schools. Keeping expenses reasonable and and in check should be a consideration by the educational focus should be primary. Although novices, Trustees Tobin and Schiff have helped true the course of the board back to the direction of education. Mr Stone who himself admitted he had never even been to a BOE meeting before deciding to run offers no sense of motivation other than Dr Treyz and his friends think he'll help shift the direction back toward finance. Mr Holbrook is no different a candidate than Mr Lipton himself was 6 years ago.
