On Saturday, April 6th, The Midwest Garrison was invited to a surprise 40th birthday party for a HUGE Star Wars fan near UIC in Chicago. We entered the party at 6:40 pm, posing for pictures with the guests, ranging from kids to adults. Everyone was really happy to see us. The room was decorated with Star Was birthday decor all over, and an AWESOME Star Wars cake.
The surprise was at 7, so we ducked into the theater onsite to be out of site. After the initial surprise from family and friends, we marched out around the corner and hit him with another! He was as excited as any child thats seen us! We hung around for another hour posing for more pictures, and having some fun with everyone.
It was a super fun, short little troop, and we really made this family's night. Special thanks to Tyler, DZ 50488, and Ted, TI 42770 who came from another troop that afternoon to help me out with this one! I appreciate it! This was also Ted's first day of trooping, and his second troop in his first day. Quite a feat! This was also my first as EC, and I hope to take many more on and make them as successful as this one!
Total Hours Trooped 1.25 each
Charity Totals $100 to Cystic Fibrosis
