The power of hurricane Isaac is insignificant next to the power of the force, and the Midwest Garrison was not deterred by such a weak-minded storm. Arriving at 4PM, we got suited up in the conference room and headed out to the main concourse for photos with fans.
The time really flew by and before we knew it, it was time for the Star Wars costume parade led by Ozzie and the MWG!
Right after the parade, it was time for Vader to throw out the first pitch.
IC-3446 (Auer) and SL-2834 (Glass) discuss plans to take over the world.
IN-9528 (Williams), TR-943 (O'Sullivan (Black Guard)), and Red Guard/Friend of the Garrison Paul Bregola look on. This troop also marks Williams' first troop!
Members who made the troop:
Kevin Glass: Darth Vader (ESB)
Jim Tampa: Imperial Crew
Ted O'Sullivan: Royal Guard
Neil Auer: Imperial Gunner
Kevin Williams: Imperial Navy
Steve Mammen: Stormtrooper
Kevin Skiera: Stormtrooper

Was a great easy first event for me, and nice an close to home. Was great meeting some of the Legion members, and seeing some people I already knew.
Looking forward to trooping with everyone again!
