Details:
On official request of one of the groups travelling in the rally, the Empires finest attended the launch of this years Just for Kids Motor Trail rally.
The venue was TJM off road accessories in Taylor Street Toowoomba.
Our shuttles landed close by and after unloading we ventured into the site where we would make contact with our Imperial / civilian liason. Once armoured up in case of rebel attack, we ventured out to mingle with the citizens. Soon after large numbers of 4wd's started arriving with looks of awe (how could they not) when they saw us.
As it was breakfast time for them we mingled and allowed them to get photos with us while they ate.
We were introduced to the "Townsville Troopers" who were one of the teams competing in this event, they had driven all the way from North Queensland to attend. Perched on their bull bar was a trooper astride a bantha..albeit a very small one and tied to the roof rack a likeness of Lord Vader.
These guys will be asking OUR Townsville troopers next year for some help as the rally commences there next year.
As it was not the time to be standing around too long, they made a few speeches and then climbed aboard their vehicles and set off with a wave from the imperial forces.
We soon returned to out shuttles and after a short visit to the imperial breakfast moon AKA Mcdonalds, we returned home.
Charity Funds Raised:
None directly but the rally will be raising funds in each town it visits for kids in need in each town.
Injuries / Malfunctions:
One minor strap let go on my armour but was soon dispatched..nothing some hot glue wont fix and Trinty had a boot malfunction but I understand some new ones may be on order..
Public Incidents:
apart from our awesomeness..nil
Mission Status:
Success.. Thanks to all who attended.
