All the buildings go into a shed for storage between events.
I got to help set up, it took about 2 hours of work with 8 or 10 guys moving buildings. Some of them are big enough that we did two man teams to move them. We also had several tote boxes of trucks, figgures, fixed guns, etc... to arange. I even brought some of my scale "props" over the mountains and added them to the scene.Break down took about an hour. Only the trees and concrete bridges are left out.
The combo of scale buildings, scale trucks and all the figgures spread arround gave the whole place a very life like feel. If you ever do get a chance to visit, stay out of the village unless you have a Sherman. Big German tanks have very little room to manuver in town and I got traped and knocked out every time.
It is truely a work of art. I could have just wondered arround and looked at the buildings for hours, but tanks were chasing me so I had to stay focused on them.
