I'll ask Rick about the Tantive IV backdrop and T'Igor if I can borrow his Razor scooter.

Sweetness!  Thanks to all of you.

One thing to keep in mind, I am sure you have, with the sword play is that these are mostly going to be little folk that don't have the experience, so I am sure that your knowledge and what you can ad-lib will be huge amounts of info.  If you want I can through a video together that shows what they do with Jedi Academy and ship it to you ASAP.  If you want...

Thanks to everyone who is coming through on all of this.  I think this is going to be one of the best events ever!!

I can get wiffle balls no problem. I am going to be in town for a couple of days before and will have nothing to do so if you guys need any help with anything else, let me know. Not looking like Maul will be ready to make it, I got too much that I want to change before I bring it out again, but I will be there one way or another.

Star Wars Video you say Martin.... we'd love one

I figure we'll do something along the lines of what we did at Sherwood... we pretty much modieifed our escrima counts to look cool, and the kids picked it up really fast. The good thing about the counts is that you can dumb them down or jack them up depending on skill level.. and most of the times the kids just like to hit things :)

Fawn, kevin and I will work out all the particulars at the Bar thing tomarrow.

So for this thread from now on we need to keep all the planning in the Events Section that is on the private part.  For the people that are not members of CCG or KB we can keep up with certain updates on here.  The issue is that the public section is only to be used for updates and specifics while all the planning takes place in the private section.  So for now, if everyone would please move to the Events Thread to discuss, plan, and otherwise cavort about this and Robin or I can make updates to this section as needed.  If you are in the public section only, PM Robin or and I we can make sure to make updates in here.  You are all welcome to talk and discuss in here, but decisions and plans have to be kept in the Events Planning thread.  We are getting too many lines run here and people are having a hard time keeping up.


Please continue on the Events Planning section.


ps...don't move this post, simply move your mouse over to the Events Planning section and discuss and plan there!

If you are meaning pics to autograph and hand out, you can make them any way you chose.  Cheap and easy 4x6 at Fred Meyer; I think  $0.19 a piece.

Thank you so much Allen, those look perfect!!

Yeah, Greg. That is all you have to do is what Martin suggested. If you have a good pic of you in your costume ( I used the photo that I submitted to the 501st ), then just go to Fred Meyer or Kinkos, or whoever and get a bunch of them printed off. I'd say you can't go wrong with having about 75-100 photos on hand... maybe more. That is what I generally try to do - have at least 100 or more photos at all times. You never know when the need for the 48 Hours of Bill to make his mark comes in to play.......  :mrgreen:

     This is TK 2129, I can make it. Do you need any help with the targets?  I'm not  very good with a computer and I've never done one of these events. Is there anything I need to know ahead of time?

Heya SaberWolf, would you mind sounding off and telling us who you are?  I am afraid you are unknown to me.

At this point I think we have most of our needs met.  I need 6 tables for the event, but those should come from WTC if they have them.  If not we will have to scramble.


ps...I found out who SaberWolf is, so welcome Will from Vancouver, here is his pic:
