the scoop:

LEGOLAND Discovery Center Chicago invites visitors to take part in the Build for a Cause Charity Challenge throughout the month of July. It’s the ultimate kids vs. grown-ups challenge — with only five minutes on the clock, each player conceptualizes and builds an amazing LEGO creation using imagination and creativity. When the time’s up, LEGOLAND’s Master Model Builder picks the most creative model, and the winner scores a point for a favorite charity organization (Ronald McDonald House Charities of Chicago and Northwest Indiana, Easterseals, After School Matters and Big Brothers Big Sisters). At the end of the month, the top-scoring organization will receive a donation of 40,000 LEGO bricks, while the other three will receive 20,000 LEGO bricks each.
