Notre Dame Day...

The Brothers Rybinski remove the Dome...

... behind the scenes. ND Day is well behind us, but oddly enough, it continues to give us stories to report. One of these continuing stories is the Lego Dome. Built by a priest from Eastern Pennsylvania, Fr. Bob Simon, the Lego replica of the Main Building started on ND Day 2022 but was only finished on ND Day 2023. But building a replica of the Main Building is only half the story because what you build, you also have to deconstruct at some point. Enter Steds. When ND Day was over, a group of six Stedsmen helped in the delicate work of deconstructing the replica. Taking two hours to deconstruct, the Stedsmen took several large portions of the replica over to the Development Offices at Eddy Street Commons, where it would be stored until being reassembled somewhere on campus. On the project, an unnamed loquitur shared, "When he's not building up the Kingdom of Heaven, this priest is building what some would say is the next best thing!"
