Online via Skype Video Application
The Texas LEGO® User Group - San Antonio (TexLUG-SA) held its fourth virtual Community Meeting of 2021 on 30 May 2021. 10 Group Members participated virtually via Skype from their homes. Attendance at virtual meetings has been outstanding compared to in person at the local Mall Food Court, so for now we are going to continue to meet virtually. Our first physical event for 2021 was a success, everyone that participated had been vaccinated against the COVID-19 Virus, which made supporting the Event better from a safety perspective. 3 Members accepted the “Parade Float” Build Challenge by building a Spring Themed Train Car for display at the Train Show. Congratulations to Ryan P with his build! We went around the Skype Session virtually and Members shared their latest creations or builds during the past month and other general subjects associated with the love of the LEGO® brick within the Group. Everyone enjoyed hearing and seeing Members’ latest creations. Continuing good news, Texas continues to receive vaccine doses to provide shots to all adults who desire the COVID-19 Vaccine since 8 June 2021, nearly 65% of Bexar County, Texas residents have received at least one vaccine dose.

Our virtual Community Meeting is filling the void of seeing each other personally and attempting to keep the Group motivated during these continued trying times with the COVID-19 virus. The State of Texas has relaxed all mandates associated with masks and social distancing, especially for those that are fully vaccinated. Members are encouraging each other to attend and actively participate at the virtual meeting since we continue to put physical meetings on hold, and participation continues to be strong at virtual meetings. Members continue to show the rest of the Group their builds while isolated or working at home via online Skype calls.
