As much as we shamelessly self-promote our activities, I was pleasantly surprised by a mother of a small boy promoting the club in her blog. They visited back in February, but one of our members stumbled across this one today.

We've had the kids running our trains for some time (they pay attention -- we don't). Had four kids running at different times today while I scoped out a layout electrical issue.
Makes it all worthwhile.
