On April 26, 2013, the Midwest Garrison was invited to be a part of Cub Scout Pack 33's Rocket Derby. The evening began with pictures and a rocket check-in. We were asked to choose and award winners for the best looking rockets in each age group. We then helped race the rockets by announcing the lineups and the winners. During the lulls between age groups, we helped the WeBeLOS earn their Showmanship badges by acting out scenes from the movies. Finally, I challenged the winner to a race between his ship and my "Rogue Shadow" which was rigged to lose, so he could truly be declared the greatest pilot in the galaxy. Then we handed out more awards and took more pictures. All together the troop lasted about 4 hours.
Trooping that day we had:
57412 – Myself – Juno Eclipse
4265 – Mark Berry – Boba Fett
4186 – Roland Batrouni – Stormtrooper
50488 – Tyler Meier – Tusken Raider
8593 – James Uphoff – Mandalorian Merc
1692 - Kent Heath - Biker Scout
761 - Jim Lawver - Tusken Raider
Jake Townsend - Mandalorian Merc
We raised $65 that night in donations for St. Jude.
Pictures are up on my Facebook page and Photobucket. I'm getting more from the pack leader, and I'll post them as they come.

I found your facebook page and was looking for photos for this event...
I think I found them...but there was also a Snowtrooper in those photos and there is no Snowtrooper listed in the participants...
so...
I must have the wrong photos..
can you point me in the right direction?

I prefer emoticons to the written word, and if you disagree....
