Detail:
Arriving early and eventually finding a park close by I moved in surveying the surrounds for rebel.
I met the organiser who had forgot about out table and collection bucket. They got it sorted but the bucket well more like a box, not sure how we are expected to fill that
While waiting for the others to arrive I walked around and it was getting busy. Shortly the other troopers arrived. I also spotted a couple of Jedi lurking around, after finding out they where here to help out we spared their lives. We all suited up and ventured out into the old school yard. Mobbed was one word for it.
A group splintered off and went to check out the rides and other attractions. Time was flying by, and before we knew it we some of our group had to depart for another engagement, not before having a burger and a cold drink.
After a short meal break and a chat the remaining troopers and Jedi wandered around the rides. One trooper found it the need to hold and cuddle a pig...
After a short stroll and an angry word from some anti gun nut we went back de-armoured, grabbed a cold drink and parted company.
I want to thank all those who came along. The lady from work was really impressed and the fete organisers over the moon with our attendance. So thank you all.
Charity Funds Raised:
Not a great deal. At a rough count it was around $70. But the fete was a huge success they raised in total close to $70,000 which is almost enough for them to build the art/music block.
Injuries:
Nil
Malfunctions:
Nil
Public Incidents:
- Some kid under 'adult' supervision tried to lift a nice looking E-11 a couple of times. But the alert trooper was onto him.
- Another 'adult' was herd from behind 'Go on kick him'....trooper just had to turn around and the look was enough to deter any further action.
- Some anti gun person asking how dare we bring weapons to a childrens school fete, hey lady did you notice they are selling toy cap gun pistols there too and they are pointing them at us not the other way around!!!
