Title: MISSION COMPLETE: 07.03.10: Oak Grove Coffee House!!!
Post by: guyactor on May 21, 2010, 10:57:09 AM
Hi all:

Barry here. I'm back to help the endeavors of some friends who own a coffeehouse in historical downtown Oak Grove (That's not saying much the owner says... ha). They promote local artists, the high school I work for and the community. Plans are to expand the premises to include a deck out back, but, they want to have fun while doing so. They are asking for a few troopers, Leia, a Fett, Chewie and I'll do Vader. They'd like to attract families. She would like to advertise in the local paper, etc.

Date: July 3
Time:1:00 PM

Hi! This is one of the owners, thank you so much for considering us!  Dale

[CCG - Check the private listing]

PS. I believe they said they could make a small donation to DCH

This is next weekend, folks. Looking good! I stopped in today and they're doing well advertising in the area. They also called it in to the Oregonian - "Community Events"? Don't know where that part is. Says it should be in tomorrow's (Saturday) paper... I don't get it. Someone wanna be on the lookout?

Gracias!

Anyone have a big 'banner' that they can hang on, or outside the shop?

Barry

Here's the map again.

FYI Update: The changing area has been relocated to about 2 blocks away rather than a half block due to my school not being open for the summer.


Remember, this is an independent troop, so costumes do not have to be canon, but no garbage bags/tin foil either - so, let's have fun!  8) 8) 8)

Ok, final details.

Meet at the coffee house. There isn't a lot of places in front but the street isn't very wide, so park on either side,  then we'll make the 3 block drive to the duplex we're changing at. There are plenty of spaces there. We'll walk back.

They'd like us to start at 1:00 -  I will be at the coffee house at 11:30 to meet and greet our people. Place is pretty easy to find. Due East of McGloghlin on Oak Grove Blvd - it curves so just keep on it until you see us on the left side of the street.

Thanks Rick. Are you able to make it a little earlier to give them time to hang the banner or is it self supporting?

If you've got any type of weaponry, bring them - It's ok.

My cell is 503-516-1999. Call if needed.

Weather's supposed to be good for this!   

See you there...

PS - If you've got any SW's music on cd, bring it. Plan is to use my car stereo with sub to play it right aside of the shop.

Barry,

I have songs (on CD) from Ep. 1, 4-6. 
Plus I have mp3 files of:
Imperial Rage (a version of the Imperial March), the Imperial March, and Metalica's version of the Imperial March.

Do you want me to combine all of, the above, them on to one CD?

That would be great! If it's not too much trouble, that way it doesn't have to be changed all the time. Could you leave off the Metallica piece? Just good, old fashioned symphonic (type) SW's music!

Thanks Matthew.

What time should we meet at the coffee house to make the migration down the road?
Title: Re: 07.03.10: Oak Grove Coffee House!!!
Post by: guyactor on July 02, 2010, 07:20:13 PM
Anytime from 11:30 on - Depending on how long you would like to get into armor. We'll drive down the street, so it won't take that long.

I'll probably wait until about 12 to leave there storefront and drive to the duplex to change.  :)

Barry,

The CD is ready... :? I had to take out some songs; due to time constraints, set by the burner program.  Also I tested tthe CD on a car, CD player, and everything is ready.

Barry,
Recon'd the coffee house, met one of the owners and discussed tomorrows plan.
The backdrop can be set-up in front and next to the coffee house (see pic). They are blocking off the parking places directly in front so you will have room to troop outside - inside, as you said, there won't be much room.
I am going to set-up chairs around back of the restaurant for you folks to take a break with water, towels, etc.
We will be there around 12:30 pm. I just don't see the banner you took over as being useful, its just too large, sorry  :(
They say a lot of people are excited about the event tomorrow and expect a good turnout.

See ya there!
Phil

Thanks for going. That's fine about the banner, I thought it was too big. Rick said he would try to bring the KASHYYYK banner.

I thought the back would be a good break area - About the only place out of public view!

Excellent - I'l be there at 11:30 also. See you then!!
