I thought I would post up some Cons in nearby states in case they affect dates for our events or in case troopers want to make a road trip. I also included SWW. If you plan on trooping, it's always best to contact the host garrison first to inform them.

Added.

:idea: We should probably have a Celebration VI event listed in Major Events instead to combine the multiple topics in various areas of the message board.

I tried to look at the info for the New Baltimore event on August 4 but I get a "page doesn't exist" message. Did the event get cancelled?

You need to be looking in the unconfirmed section under legion events.

Hello all I am a future trooper my stormtrooper armor should arrive any day now. I still need to build it but in the meantime I would like to help out at some events to get a feel for things. I will do any job but I am an amateur photographer by trade and could take pictures at events. Just wondering how I go about getting invited or how I join an event.

Head over to the Welcome Mat thread and introduce yourself! Then have a read over this post:
http://www.greatlakesgarrison.com/forum ... =85&t=7414

Non Costumed Support (NCS) aka handlers, aka wranglers are very important to many of our events and a great way to meet other members and see what Trooping is all about while you finish your costume.

For your Stormtrooper build, if you haven't yet I highly recommend joining the forums at whitearmor.net which is the home of the First Imperial Stormtrooper Detachment of the 501st. There's a wealth of information and helpful folks who can help you along with your build.
