I was contacted by Vicki Bogner Pachol about members of the 501st surprising her son at his wedding reception. She was interested in having Darth Vader and a storm trooper but was over joyed that several more characters were also in attendance. Members of the 501st arrived and were lead to a secure changing area adjacent to the reception hall. At 8pm one of the groom's friends announced that he brought some friends to crash the party. The newly weds were very excited as Darth Vader, Director Krenic, a shadow guard, two stormtroopers, and Maul trooper made their presence known. We entertained the crowd and posed for pictures. A $500 dollar donation was made by the groom's mother on our behalf to the Ronald McDonald House Charity. All in all, a great troop.
