Details:
Troopers assembled at the Mater Hospital, it was observed that some were very very eager as it was their first outing . . .
The Starlight captains were keen to get the party started and were able to after probably the quickest change into armour fom a fashionably late clone!!!Troopers then entered the Circus of Dreams to entertain and pose for photos with the party kids and big kids. Greedo, instead of blowing away bounties - had a heap of fun blowing bubbles with some of the Starlight Captains and Doc found a novel use for a forcepike by offering all some fairy floss from the rasp emitter
After a quick break the troopers and their guides then moved down to the wards to spread more fun to those who couldn't make it upstairs. Some were shy, some were not shy but plenty of photos were obtained - even from the staff as per usual. Another quick visit back to the party as the kids got there showbags and all the volunteers and Captains joined the troopers for a few quick photos. To the relief of a few hot troopers, a day was called but a fantastic time had by all!!!

Nil - but the kids had as much fun as if they were at the real Ekka!!!

Donut had his hand plates on incorrectly for the first half - do that again and you WILL be doing the next troop report

On my facebook page.
Greedo was quite the hit with one little girl. Shame I couldn't see her smile.
I just had to listen to all the oh's and are's from her parents and other troopers.
