Clamps[TK] Posted December 16, 2012 Report Posted December 16, 2012 The Canadian Garrison is back in action today at Santa's Ultimate Chill Zone. It was an action packed day, where ~1,000 low-income children and their families get to take part in exciting activities, enjoy tasty snacks and of course, have a visit with Santa complete with a gift to take home. For over 20 years, the event has provided a holiday experience to children who may not have one. They requested 3-5 characters; we showed up lucky 13 strong!. We had two members of the Tantive IV Boarding Party Fire team in TK, so its another Fire Team troop! In attendance: TK/DZ 25267 Charles Bowes "Clamps" (TIVBP) TK 6093 Andrea Loar "Pickles" (TIVBP) TK 6355 Brian Hunter TD 6305 Rob Macaulay TD 9464 Dominic Sinopoli TD 7052 Jordan Samuel TI 7789 Mark Vidulin TB 392 Rob Ryan CC 3714 Phil Fabroni CT 9418 Ken Morse "Pony Boy" SL 8350 Sean Sullivan BH 11666 ROTJ Boba Fett Shawn Preston RoTJ Luke - TJ Huggins ANH Princess Leia - Susan Sullivan Jr. Combat Photographer - Chloe Bowes "Monkey Girl" Sr. Combat Photographer - Robert Goldie Whew, I'm exhausted just making that list!

Pickles[TK] Posted December 19, 2012 Report Posted December 19, 2012 (edited) It was 3 weeks since our last troop and needless to say we had a sizable turn out of troopers jonsing for action! We tried showing the locals how to use a blaster but they were just confused! There was a photo op station for everyone to get their pictures taken. Poor Vader blended into the background so much it's like where's waldo! We were not the only costumed people there but we did have quite an impact! Kids were wanting troopers in all their photos! Clamps and I got to scheming... or we would have if we could hear each other. It was loud in there. We plotted to harass Rex but he got us back in the end! We even had a Disney moment! And as usual, Rob and I got up to some various shenanigans!

I really wanted to sit on Santa's lap but I didn't want to do that to th epoor guy! lolol It was another fantastic troop! The staff at the YMCA have already made plans to have us back next year! As always, more pics here, thanks to our amazing photographer! https://www.facebook...79267085&type=1 And video to come soon! Edited December 19, 2012 by Pickles Quote
