Bricks & Minifigs Beaverton presents, Joe's Restaurant!
This mini movie was created by some amazing kids that attended their Lego Stop Motion camp. Kids of all ages were able to come to this camp which was packed with activities, creative design, and the excitement of bringing Lego to life. The kids learned the basics of how to create their own stop motion film and were taught that when it comes to Lego, you can always Rebuild, Reuse, and Reimagine!
Remembering all those who served, prisoners of war, missing and killed in action — you are not forgotten. Bugler Scott Woods plays "Taps" during Beaverton's Memorial Day program.
