LEGO store monthly mini model build and poll results

My son and I decided to attend our local LEGO store's monthly mini model build today (Tuesday, April 6th). The event, which started at 5 PM, was free, and open to children aged 8 to 14. The model for April was the LEGO chick.

What my son thought of the mini model build event today:
"I thought that the line was a little long. It may not be worth the wait, but I was okay with waiting anyways. And when we got to the front of the line, we had to wait a bit before a table was cleared and refilled with LEGO pieces. Unfortunately, they told us we couldn't take home the instructions because they only had a few. I liked building the LEGO chick and it is currently displayed on my dresser."

One hour later, almost there:
