(Wrangling for the first time and did a cracking job! Thanks guys!)

Details:
At approximately 8.45am the largest Imperial attendance in Townsville made its way over the crest of the hill to the awaiting crowd in the distance. The heat was already bearing down on us, but we paid it no mind there was a mission to complete. We made our way to the front of the crowd and collected our banner. There was a hushed silence as the ribbon was cut and we were off, proudly marching down the Strand. We headed a large group of walkers along the sea front before returning to Strand Park to watch the children perform a dance routine. It was magical to see the children's faces light up and be asked for hugs and high fives. We mingled with the attendees and posed for numerous photos as only the most stylish Imperials can! It was awesome to see Nix666 join us in a guest appearance all the way from Mackay. Well done sir!

Many thanks to all who took part having fun and raising awareness for a great cause. We have a splendid bunch of troopers here in Townsville that I am proud to now be a part of!
