Can we get an actual day and time for this? It says both Saturday and Sunday and the start and end times are confusing. I'm not doing both days 9 am- 6pm so can we get a more reasonable time for this? So if that's what is expected we should have options to choose which day. It's next weekend so can we get this a little more clear?
Yes it's an official troop.
I think last year only one day was considered the official troop so we could coordinate as many characters as possible all together. I believe we did Saturday last year and then those that wanted to return on Sunday on their own did that.
I will be driving down to New Haven again from Stafford, and I have plenty of room to fit 4 more people in my truck with their gear if anyone wishes to carpool. JFYI I do go to the club dinner after the parade.
It takes just over an hour to get there from my town. If anyone wishes to carpool with me you can park your vehicles at my firehouse and we'll rendezvous there. I will be leaving town around 730am.
Welcome, Nick!! Hope to meet you at a troop soon! Even if you don't have a costume yet, you can come with us and act as a handler for the day. Welcome aboard!
This was a fantastic troop!! Our POC was incredible. She knew exactly what she wanted us to do and where she wanted us to be at any given time. She communicated very well with the whole group and even one-on-one. She provided refreshments, fruit and granola bars, bags of a variety of chips and plenty of bottled water along with private restrooms and a large room just for us to change and take breaks. I will definitely do this troop again... and it was a real perk to hear an advertisement on the radio on my drive to the event about Star Wars Day at the CT Science Center and their ad hyped up the appearance of "Many of your favorite Star Wars characters will be appearing from the 501st Legion CT Garrison"... was a great day. And the group ice cream in the lobby was a real fun perk. I just want to say thanks to everyone who participated and made the day fun for me as well as all the fans.
