[Important Announcement for all Members. (APRIL FOOL'S DAY, 2021 :D )]

Who's the more foolish? The fool, or the fool who follows him?

 

[TK-15028 Requesting ANH TK Stunt Centurion Status [AM] (480)]

Nice going, Trooper.  Welcome to the ranks!

29) 8-1-20 Topton, Pa., Hospice Visit

 

This weekend members of our Garrison visited Joe, an adult hospice patient and lifelong "Star Wars" fan, whose wish was to have a bit of quality time with his favorite characters.  He had no idea this had been set up or that we were coming, so you can imagine his surprise when we marched up outside his window.  We couldn't go inside, of course, but we could talk to him via one of the event host's cell phone on speaker.  We even got our own Imperial Shuttle to take us from the changing room to Joe's side of the campus.

 

 

We visited with Joe for about a half hour or so, and he was thrilled.

 

This was my first Hospice Troop, and I'll never forget it.

28) 7-18-20 Bloomsburg, Pa. Children's Museum.

 

It's been ages, but finally did a (somewhat pandemic-compromised) Troop this weekend!

 

The diminutive Jawa right in front of the Tusken is my Grandson Jed.

 

Checking for identification.  (We didn't need to see his identification.)

 

That's my wife, Sally, in the olive officer uniform.

Congratulations Eric and Jasper.

 

Wow, it's getting close!  The rest of you working hard, keep at it and you'll help push it over the top.

Totally unofficial -- but necessary -- Troop.

 

Enforcing the Imperial Six-Foot Rule (with an Imperial 6' rule), and keeping the loyal Imperial citizens in my neighborhood safe!

24) 12-22-19 --- Mt. Pocono, Pa., Rise of Skywalker at Casino Theater & Malt Shop (2nd of two Episode IX Troops this weekend...)

 

 

This indie Mom-and-Pop theater (a dying breed, sadly) also had a small restaurant, so naturally we had to conquer the kitchen, as well...
