501st Muscular Dystrophy Kaybee Toys troop 9-1-07

Kaybee Toys had a special promotion to donate money to the MDA and invited my 501st squad to help them generate some $$

As of 5:00 they raised a little over $200. Last year they raised $36. Imperial presence sure makes a difference.

I never said that!
Though I was going to but I figured "no, he's doing it for charity, no need to pick on the guy for that"
:P

Wait, $36!? That's like one decent donation! Stingy bastards. Good to see you guys out again, though.

You know what i'd love to see you guys doing?

A sausage sizzle.

Just the thought of of seeing Vader turning snags on the barbie would be priceless. :grin:
And why do I get the feeling i've just completely confused the non-Australians?

I always knew the Empire was the Good side of the Force!

I mean is there a Jedi raising money? No!

Grate to see you doing stuff like that!

Have another Cookie! :grin:

Barbecuing sausage.
LOL.. We had a squad meeting /Armor party BBQ last weekend.
We did not dress up though. We just worked on some armor, talked about future troops and Mardi Gras and hung around.

Once We get the rest of our insurance money I can buy a new BBQ pit and finally be able to burn some meat on the babrie again..

I have not been able to BBQ at my own house since Katrina.

Our next troop is at the end of the month, it is a breast cancer walk..

I'm hoping Vader will have some ventilation for that one. Good to see you guys helping out again.

Another fund raising idea for you guys.

CAR WASH! :grin:

There's just something funny about seeing Vader and Stormtroopers in nothing but their helmets and swimmers washing cars. :P

And I don't mean it in an insulting way either, because i'm sure people would be lining up to get their cars washed just for that site!

Do you guys take Halloween off? I'd imagine trooping all year would take the novelty from dressing up.

It is.. It is so much fun to do and I have made 20+ new good friends (everyone in my squad plus spouses).
