jsilvius[Staff] Posted May 5, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2020 Troop #4 May the Forth social distancing parade for a young fan that lost his father to cancer. We followed all the social distancing requirements for our state, including limiting our troop to 10 people. It was also my son's first troop. He has his TI and IC and we are working on his TK. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jsilvius[Staff] Posted December 16, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2020 (edited) As 2020 is winding up, I just wanted to add my Three "unofficial" troops, just so I have them noted. I got my TK approved Feb. 15, 2020. The following Saturday, my wife and I did a dry at a small local con at a local high school to help their drama department. It was just amazing the smiles I got, and how much everyone loved to see my stormtrooper there. Then my son and I did 2 "unofficial" troop for a Sci-fi marathon at a family owned Drive-in Theater. We did it 2 of the 4 night they ran the movies, and it was amazing. So even with COVID-19 ruining 2020, I still got 10 TK troops in (even if unofficially). The Garrison did get to "film" the Christmas Parade this year. We did it Halloween morning, and the aired it last week, but my TK is currently under going some repair, so I had to wear my TI Reserve.

jsilvius[Staff] Posted April 18, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2021 Troop 8 Passion Community Church At the Movies-Powhatan So much fun to be back in White Armor.

jsilvius[Staff] Posted May 3, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2021 Troop 9 We did a May the 4th event in Waynesboro @ Stable Craft Brewery. The event is called "May the Horse be with you". They have done this event for several years now. I had upgraded my shoulder bells and chest piece, but the shoulder bridges on my new chest piece broke while getting dressed, so I had to revert to my old one (happy I brought the spare parts with). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsilvius[Staff] Posted May 8, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2021 Troop 10 Clan Silvius traveled to Illinois to visit family for vacation and we took it as an opportunity to do our first out of Garrison Troop. The Midwest Garrison folks in the Shorewood/Joliet area that hosted the event were amazing and we had a blast. We did a parade around the neighborhood and stopped to do group photos. It was awesome. So happy to have taken the opportunity. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you haven't see it, it is pretty cool. The Symphony plays John Williams score live while the movie is showing. It is very cool. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
