10/18/14 Small Wonders Walk- East Peoria

Post by BigPapaKev »

As a popular attraction for the CHOI's telethon kid's are we were invited to set up BAT for a walk a thon benefiting their NICU. As an event that contained bounce houses, face painting and other games geared towards a younger audience, BAT was requested as something fun for the older kids in attendance. As usual we were very well received and pretty much dodged darts for the troops duration. Slowly with these events we are figuring put the best way to streamline things. (what guns work best, how many guns available, ect...) With the exception of many of the younger kids double rooster and jamming up the blasters things went well. I chose to wear my IC so I would be able to interact with people better and provide some support with weapon malfunctions. Interestingly, when I was a target very few shots came my way. It seemed like the kids enjoyed aiming at the bucketed troopers much more than me. Considering there was competition from another troop downstate, turnout was nice. Appreciated the much needed help. Trooping for the cause were

Awesome......

unfortunately the link to photos is not working...
and...
you have that you provided 4 man hours...but I count 5 participants?

So....where you guys there for 4 hours each? Or 1 hour each...which would be 5 hours...
And if you set up BAT...I am sure there was set up time involved...
