I'm available for the parade, but only if a few more sign up. Will either be Rex or Porg Leader (OT X-Wing), depending on weather.

I am bad at remember dates.  I have to withdraw from this as I am scheduled for a manufacturing recall replacement part on my car.  Right at the time of the parade.

Ran this one solo with three mercs. Freezing before parade, great weather during parade, rain after the parade. Lol
