Around the MWG

Members of the MWG battled auto show traffic the evening of February 16, 2008 to participate at an annual award dinner hosted by ReMax. The theme for the evening was Star Awards and Jason Patterson SL1719 donned white and proved to an unknowing crowd that Sith Lords can wear white. Thanks to his efforts along with 4 other members, Children's Memorial were given a check for $500. Way to go, Troops!!

After working with the Raue Center for the Performing Arts in Crystal Lakes for the Gala Parade, members of the 501st Legion were excited to learn of the Raue Center hosting "One Man Star Wars". The center contacted the MWG and Cheryl Whitaker TI-3127 served as event coordinator. It's always a good time when Charlie comes to the MWG and we look forward to his next area apparence. Read the mission report for more information and photos!

On February 16th, members of the MWG and Rebel Legion assembled in WI for the OshKosh Public Museum's "Out of This World" exhibit. Since the exhibit spans several decades worth of science-fiction movies, it was no surprise to see the numerous Star Wars original trilogy pieces. Some of the most impressive pieces include a full set of Darth Vader armor; Luke's x-wing pilot jumpsuit, severed hand, and lightsaber from ESB. Many rounds of thanks to Dan Wiechman TK533 and his brothers and sisters in the Legion for all their hard work and long hours of trooping. Wiechman credits his fellow troops along with the friendly, knowledgeable museum staff for the success event.
