Greetings exalted one(s)! Just joined the forum and poking around to get the lay of the (Garden State) land. How many of you are up in north NJ? I'm looking forward to learning more!

There are plenty of us in North Jersey...I'm in Pompton Lakes myself...don't know if I could fully estimate the numbers of RL and 501sters in North Jersey off the top of my head though. |

I would suggest making an account at http://www.501stner.com/members/index.php?act=home too, even if you’re more interested in the rebel side of things. A lot of the membership overlaps, and works together. Following devaron base on Facebook as well as NER might give you a heads up for upcoming events that you could offer to spot (assist out of costume) for and make connections and get advice. |

Hi Matt! While I am now located in Rahway, I am from Nutley born and raised haha.
I would echo what Lindsay said. These forums are a bit.... difficult to navigate lol. Definitely sign up on the NER boards as well, and we can add you to our member Facebook group once you become approved with a costume.
What character(s) are you interested in building?
Looking forward to seeing you join our base!  _________________ Devaron Base, BPR | RLGS - Delegation of Assarda DL; UCGR; Wretched Hive - Twin Horn Clan; KJO - Temple of Eedit; DB 94 - Hangar Bay I-95

The costume thing may take some time (rather expensive hobby...lol) but I will do what I can for the cause  |

Also, it's a third club, but note that Saberguild NJ holds lightsaber choreography classes in Rahway on Tuesday evenings and the NY group in Pleasantville NY on Friday evenings. These are open to all though occasionally classes are focused on preparing members with costumes for upcoming shows. Class schedules can be followed on the Saberguild Corellia and Saberguild Empire Temple facebook groups. |

I so want to do that but it's a bit of a hike and an hour-long drive on the Parkway. Makes it a rough morning as a teacher...Sometimes Caff is not enough. |

Hopefully I can get a costume up and running so I can join in. If there is anything else I can do to help in the meantime, let me know. Music Teacher by trade with various other skills to offer. |

We have a ton of events all throughout the year and work very closely with our local 501st Legion chapter The Northeast Remnant Garrison. A majority of us are actually dual members so we staff a lot of requests from library events to hospital visits and conventions. _________________ Devaron Base, BPR | RLGS - Delegation of Assarda DL; UCGR; Wretched Hive - Twin Horn Clan; KJO - Temple of Eedit; DB 94 - Hangar Bay I-95
