I am doing this event again. When Nick, Kevin and I did this last year we were a huge hit. Needless to say, LTN wants us back and have asked that we be some sort of entertainment for the crowd, you know photo ops with the kids who will be there.
Anyone who wants to participate, let me know. Anyone who wants to contribute any funds for the cause, you can go here:

The event, itself, it on October 9, 2009 at my work (World Trade Center, Portland). Walk registration opens at 6pm, with the Walk, itself, starting at 7:30pm. Those who are interested in participating in costuming for this event are asked to be there, suited up and ready to go by 5:45pm.
Anyway, I know there wasn't much interest in doing this last year, but I thought I would offer it up to the Garrison to see if any would be interested in doing this.
I'll cross post this over at Kashyyyk Base, for the RL folks who don't frequent the CCG boards, here, as well as the Oregon Fan Force.
Also, when I discussed this at the picnic, Ralph made a great suggestion about the fund. So, if you go to the page you will see that I have updated the team goal for funds raised. Seeing as how it is team Cloud City Garrison, and we are 501st, it seemed highly appropriate. Thanks for the suggestion Ralph.
If anyone has any questions, please contact me and I will get those questions answered. The most obvious one about changing room and storing our bins, I am still working on that one. I will see if I can use the locker room again this year, but I am not sure if the boss will let me do it again, or not. We will have to see about that. If I have to, I will rent a U-Haul truck for the day and we can use that to dress down in, and store our gear. As the event gets closer, I will have a better idea of what we are up to.
