Wynnum Wonders Barefoot Bowls - muppet - Sunday 21-Jul-2013 Date: Sunday 21st July, 2013 Venue: Wynnum Manly Leagues Bowls Time: 11am - 2pm Mission: To raise money for Women Cancers RBWH & QIMR Trooper Attendance: Chopper- IC, Muppet- TK, Phantom - BH, Rubber - TD, RL- Jeadus Teal- Jedi, Gene E-di- Jedi Guest Trooper Attendance: Duck & Tanna Support Crew: Duck & Tanna, Mitch and Declan Detail: You couldn't have asked for a better day. The weather gods had turned the sun shine on for us, and with Moreton Bay as a background, you have perfect trooping conditions. Troopers arrived on scene around 11am just before the punters began arriving. It was decided to armour up and show the locals the awesomeness of the Legion's finest. We were soon joined by a couple of Jedi, that must have used some mind trick on us, because we let them live. It was a little quiet, and after photos were taken with the civilians, we watched some of them bowl a few lawn bowls on the green. Seemed simple enough, bowl a black ball down the length of the green and get it as close as possible to the little white ball called Jack or Kitty. Troopers were asked to remove their foot wear before treading on the green, except Boba. He politely declined and no one was going to argue with him. More jedi mind tricks were employed by the cheating Jedi, as none of our balls would go near the Jack, they would either turn to the right or the left. It took the quick thinking Boba to work out, that the balls were biased and we were back on target. The Jedi were no match for the Imperials. The aroma of the bbq, was too strong to ignore, so lunch was taken. Then more balls were bowled. After many ends it was decided our mission was complete and our job was done. Troopers de-armoured and rehydrated. Charity Funds Raised: Just shy of $2000 Injuries: The lawn greens with some freshly created divots Malfunctions: 1 TK hand plate flew off whilst a drive was being attempted. Public Incidents: nill Mission Status: Successfully. Wasnt a huge crowd, but still plenty came and supported the day. Big thankyou to Lisa for entertaining the crowd with her dance ( we wont mention the FB update regarding how well your "bowels" are ), and all troopers for coming down. Really appreciated. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W96r_Z7inyY&feature=youtu.be Photos: http://s45.photobucket.com/user/501qld/library/2013%20Campaigns/2013-07-21%20Wynnum%20Wonders%20Barefoot%20Bowls?sort=4&page=4 RL photos http://s1337.photobucket.com/user/TatooineBase/library/2013%20Missions/2013-07-21%20Wynnum%20Wonders%20Barefoot%20Bowls?sort=4&page=1 RE: Wynnum Wonders Barefoot Bowls - Cougar - Sunday 21-Jul-2013 Big thank you to all that attended this casual but fun troop!
