Mission Report:

It was a cool cloudy start to the troop with a few showers. Michael and Sharon arrived just before 10 am to change up and start trooping. The store owner, Mal, arranged a base for the Rebel Legion/501st Southern Cross Garrison under his shop front awning out of the sun and rain. The crowds were a bit slow until lunch time but picked up when the cosplayers started to arrive and register for the afternoon’s cosplay competitions. We had some interactions with the public and some fans looking for information to join. Just before 12 noon, Neil arrived to provide lunchtime relief and this allowed us to do some crowd interactions off-base. Some families were happy to have selfie snaps and thanked us for the opportunity. About 2pm, the festival crowd stared to thin out so we called it a day. Thanks for everyone who dropped by and said hello, much appreciated.

Mission Status:
The three of us made a tight team, and we look forward to attending next year if an invite is extended to us. Therefore, I declare this troop a success for both Rebel Legion and the 501st.
