Who didn't love to play with LEGO's as a kid. As a matter of fact, they're still a lot of fun to tinker around with as an adult.

Now you have a chance to help turn a tragedy into something that helps support a great organization here in South Dakota.

Saturday, July 26th is the "Family Fun Carnival" to support First LEGO League Robotics in South Dakota. The event will take place from 11:00-6:00 P.M. at South Dakota Robotics Association, located at the corner of 49th and Southeastern Avenue in Sioux Falls.

Admission is $6.00 for adults, $4.00 for kids. Children under 4 get in free. Donate one non-perishable food item for Food Drive and get a one dollar discount on your admission price.

They'll be LEGO demonstrations that day, along with games, a bake sale, refreshments, raffles and Bounce Around Inflatables for the kids to play on.

The event will help fund FIRST LEGO League teams and activities in the area and as a memorial to Josh Lambrecht and the three other men who died on December 9, 2011 in a tragic plane crash on their way from Sioux Falls to Rapid City for a LEGO League meeting.

All the proceeds will be donated to South Dakota FIRST LEGO League and its supporting organizations.
