Santas Ultimate Chill Zone


Clamps

Recommended Posts

The Canadian Garrison is back in action today at Santa's Ultimate Chill Zone. It was an action packed day, where ~1,000 low-income children and their families get to take part in exciting activities, enjoy tasty snacks and of course, have a visit with Santa complete with a gift to take home. For over 20 years, the event has provided a holiday experience to children who may not have one.

 

They requested 3-5 characters; we showed up lucky 13 strong!. We had two members of the Tantive IV Boarding Party Fire team in TK, so its another Fire Team troop! In attendance:

  • TK/DZ 25267 Charles Bowes "Clamps" (TIVBP)
  • TK 6093 Andrea Loar "Pickles" (TIVBP)
  • TK 6355 Brian Hunter
  • TD 6305 Rob Macaulay
  • TD 9464 Dominic Sinopoli
  • TD 7052 Jordan Samuel
  • TI 7789 Mark Vidulin
  • TB 392 Rob Ryan
  • CC 3714 Phil Fabroni
  • CT 9418 Ken Morse "Pony Boy"
  • SL 8350 Sean Sullivan
  • BH 11666 ROTJ Boba Fett Shawn Preston
  • RoTJ Luke - TJ Huggins
  • ANH Princess Leia - Susan Sullivan

It was 3 weeks since our last troop and needless to say we had a sizable turn out of troopers jonsing for action! :D

We tried showing the locals how to use a blaster but they were just confused!

There was a photo op station for everyone to get their pictures taken. Poor Vader blended into the background so much it's like where's waldo!

We were not the only costumed people there but we did have quite an impact! Kids were wanting troopers in all their photos!

Clamps and I got to scheming... or we would have if we could hear each other. It was loud in there.

We plotted to harass Rex but he got us back in the end!
