Welcome from another Stormtrooper Steve! That's great to hear that you're joining the ranks! You're welcome to come out and join us as a spotter, check our spotter thread for updates, and it's a good way to meet people and see what our events are like (and start research on the costume). Which kit did you order?
Will be great to have more representation in Vancouver! It's not far from Portland, but sometimes the traffic makes it feel like it is so I know our folks up there would love to grow the ranks!
