I told him it wouldn't be a problem.We can work something out.
By 6:45,all available troopers were secretly gathered on the street in front of Connor's house.We geared up in the garage and were ready to rock by 7:30.
We made our entrance to the Star Wars theme music and quickly took control of the party.The kids were extremely surprised to see several Imperials and a Rebel pilot step through the door.From what I'm told,they were absolutely floored when Vader quickly followed.The kids eventually noticed the lowly Tusken lurking in the background.
Connor was presented with a choice of gifts from the Midwest Garrison.He chose a Clone Commander Stone figure.R2-D2 and a couple of Jawa figs were awarded as prizes to the winners of several games of hot thermal detonator.
The kids were then gathered together for a group photo with Legion members.Two stormtrooper helmets were supplied for the kids to try on and take pictures in.
Bags of tats and candy were handed out to all,then we attempted to make our exit accompanied by more Star Wars music.Somehow,several of the troops wound up dancing with the kids.The Tusken took this opportunity to raid the kitchen for some goodies.AGAIN!
We eventually made our way back to the garage,geared down and enjoyed some liquid refreshments provided to us by Connor's dad.At this time we were presented with a check for $150 payable to the St. Jude's Childrens Foundation.
