 SRS - Night to Shine

Description: Night to Shine is an unforgettable prom night experience, centered on God’s love, for people with special needs, ages 14 and older

 

First longer troop and the boots are aching today! I forgot my belt and was saved by my fellow trooper Calvin (Sith trooper pictured). Thanks, man! Noting for future troops and putting it on the checklist.

First big parade. Fun to see so many kids having fun.  My hands are sore from all the high-fiving. :)

you can almost guarantee that the TKs were practically invisible

 

I was at the opposite side of the photo shoot area. We did get the run off of kids who were maybe too shy to get into the ring with the fancy ones.  I did get my share of pics and a few hugs(!) even.  It was pretty quiet for us, but everyone loves armor!

Vader and Chewie seem common in comparison!


Yeah, Chewie and the droids got most of the attention.

MHS - 2023 MiniCon (Landmark Comic Book Club)

 

I'm not in the photos I've found yet, but I still get blown away every time Threepio & Artoo are present and have to share. Bonus points for Gonk.

CSU Spring Science Extravaganza
A very cold day (~30F) for a troop. Thanks to the kind staff for getting pizzas for the staff, volunteers & troop.  A small group braving the cold to bring some smiles to a lot of little & big kids.

VFW Honor Flight #42

Honor Flights are special events where the VFW flies a group of veterans to our nation's capital.

This was my introduction to this event and it was a very meaningful one I will be doing again. (Though I may not do it the same day as another troop. Lots of standing around 2x in a day is painful, but at least I was warm.)

Troop 10 was pretty fun. Star Wars day 2023 well spent.  I was bummed not to squeeze in at least a 2nd troop, but it was not to be. More tomorrow and Saturday.

Mostly standing in one place for a long time. But there were a lot of very excited people getting their photos with the menagerie. So the smiles made it worth it.

Orchard Park Academy

A fun troop event interrupting kids during their classes during the afternoon.  The school had called too late to get a group on the 4th, but they went with the next best for the Revenge of the FIfth. Even better in my opinion. :sith:

Amazing how hard our teachers work. I hear it, I know it, but seeing it is just amazing.

Superhero Scuttle @ Children's Hospital

Had fun in spite of miserable weather.

I look like an action figure next to a fellow trooper. So, no, I'm not short for a stormtrooper ftr.

Scott and Ashley's beautiful wedding.  So much fun to see so many involved wearing costumes and playing the part.  Even The Maker himself showed up.

A slightly daunting sight for someone walking down the aisle, but what a view!

So fun to have been part of such a unique event.  Congrats, Ashley!

Denver Fan Expo 

 

My first big con was a blast. Definitely the most fun I've had at any trooping event as far as volume of people, photos taken and number of club members. Our area was combined with the Rebel Legion and Mandalorians so we had a great mix.  

 

Unfortunately I had an obligation on the last day, so I feel like I missed some of the best moments, I would have kitted back up for the rest of the day if I hadn't had to leave, but what I got to do was definitely plenty of fun.

 

Great image, but not the friendliest of backdrops.  The Garrison, Mando Mercs and Rebel Legion put together an amazing set for our corner of the con.

A young trooper stopped by with a great armor kit that I had to get a few extra shots with. (pun intended)

The kids parade. Our last day had a much bigger crew that Saturday.

Of course there is only One Way Out! Nutty fun.

SRS - Fort Collins Comic Con 2023 - 2 days

 

A great small con in Northern Colorado.  Saturday was slow but Sunday was a lot more active due to the cosplay red carpet.  

 

Keeping an eye out for any rebel activity.

Room for one more.  

[Updated: Got featured on the 501st Instagram. Woohoo!]

The only thing that keeps me from staying in armor all day is a bathroom break.

Assigned to intimidate the rebel legion. Success.

Got in a little scuffle trying to detain a known Imperial outlaw. Armor held up to a saber as well as expected.

Getting to be the warm up act for the Colorado Symphony was an honor and a privilege. And pretty fun.  It's great to have a Star Wars specific event where everyone is glad to see us in equal measure. Getting to see A New Hope backed by a great orchestra was an amazing experience I am lucky to have had.  Lots of great fan interactions.  So many smiles, makes it all worth it.
