The troops of Midwest Garrison and Nar Shaddaa Base were out in "Force" for the May the Fourth fundraiser event for the Children's Miracle Network at the Orland Hills Walmart! Enthusiastic shoppers and associates got their photos taken with the troops in exchange for donations to CMN. The turnout was terrific, and the donations were equally awesome! The grand total of direct donations came in at $583! The best part is there's been numerous requests around the store for a repeat performance for next year!
Troopers in attendance were:
Ted Ruler SL 36285 - Maul
Patrick Klehr DZ 10040 – Chewbacca
Steve Szyndrowski SL 3052 - Vader
Phyllis Schulte 1951 - X-wing Pilot
Robert Hamilton TB8310 - Biker Scout
Paul Machnic BH11222 - Boba Fett
We had a mini duel of fates...
Boba Fett took on the challenge of being a people greeter too!
A most impressive turnout of troops for a worthy cause!
