IL - Westmont/60559 - ACS Relay for Life- Fri 5/31/13

Post by gazmosis »

The Midwest Garrison and the American Cancer Society have had a long standing relationship. Director Leslie Abrahamson once again called upon the services of the mighty Midwest Garrison to entertain the devoted masses who came out to Westmont Jr. High School on 5/31 to show their support for those who survived, are battling, or who lost their battle with cancer. Originally scheduled to be in an outside stadium, weather forced this event indoors but the rain could not drown the passion these people have for this event.
Troops that appeared and costume appeared in:
Steve Gaza TK4034 photographer
Mike Riemma TI1659 Tie Pilot (supported by his son, Wyatt in mini-clone)
Chad Collins SL6876 Darth Maul (a special note: Chad's deep thoughts in regards to this event were displayed in his make-up choice. Instead of the traditional black/red for Darth Maul, Chad chose black/pink as a show of respect. The response was overwhelming by both participants and staff!!! Way to go, Chad!!!!
Kevin Glass TK2834 Stormtrooper
Dave Klima TK12155 Stormtrooper
Ted Ruler SL 36285 Shadow Scout
Tuomas Pento TB9078 Biker Scout

Awesome!

And....just double checking that the organizers of the Westmont event sent in a request through the boards for our participation
...
because then we get to add the total for the event into our indirect donations...

currently the Westmont Relay for Life raised: $19,698.19!
