It's that time again! I would like to fill this up sooner than later, and also give preference to folks who haven't done this event yet. It's pretty neat! This time we're sharing the event officially with the Rebel Legion (yay!) so each club will have 3 costumed characters per night. We do have permission for extra roaming characters (i.e. not at the backdrop) but these folks won't receive passes to the show. Members who are staying for the show will receive one ticket for themselves, and one for a guest, to be used the same night you troop. I am trying to get comped parking again, stand by for that. If you are trooping as part of the Rebel Legion, please do not sign up here - instead use the RL boards. Thanks!
