This is Magneticon's 4th year in Townsville. This time around we trooped at the Cities Entertainment Centre right on the foreshore. Our raffle this year was for the Children’s Charity ‘VARIETY’. All proceeds going to car number 501. We had a slightly odd custom X Wing helmet painted in REDBACK colours and markings for 1st Prize and for the 2nd prize a couple of pimped out Range Troopers on top of a tracked transport. These awesome prizes happily donated by BlackEmber and Ron from Hemble Creations respectfully. A special thanks to Rick for his great work on the POP BOX. Special guests included the B..E..A..UTIFUL Stephanie ‘HEX’ Bendixsen who happily posed for a photo. Plus the talented Dean Rankine from the Simpsons. We also got to see the behemoth Brother Braccus from Becosplay. Good work all.
We posed for as many photos for all the fans and a huge number of children this year. At one stage we were inundated with little ones leaping at out fist pumps and high fives. We had lots of little tots with mum n dad and one crying baby.
Raffle: $ 133.40
Donations: $ 94.90
Total: $ 228.30
Slice Excess: - $ 110
Extra: Nil
Injuries/Malfunctions: Nil to report.
Public incidents: Nil to report.
Mission Status: This year’s event was a great success, especially after hearing that it may not have occurred. It would not have been possible if it were not for the great KATE and SCOTT from Piper Promotions for making it all happen, and all with 6 months planning. Partnered sponsor Joyce Mayne Townsville for promoting and putting their efforts in. A great catch up with friends and a wonderful time was had at the mixer. 1st prize went to a 501st Fan Patrick and 2nd Prize to our very own DShrike.
