I should be in as well. No track meets so far. Reb/Steve (Commando)/Ed, any inquiries from Del Rey/LFL?

I am in contact with the latest Special Events Person at the store - I am going to issue the dinner invitation as well!
Thanks for passing this on to me - since they changed the staff at Del Rey they haven't been doing a very good job of staying in contact with the clubs Thanks Reb If you can't do something smart, do the right thing

OK, I have now heard from the Legion: The publisher has contacted LFL and requested the 501st Legion to provide the honor guard for all the book signing events nationally. This one is of course special since Minneapolis is now his "home town," and Troy is an honorary member of the 501st Legion. Our Garrison CO has contacted the store events manager and secured approval for Rebel Legion members to also participate. I have asked Chad V, the 501st State Captain, to be the event coordinator, and he will work with the store manager and Ed to make sure folks who are not members of either Legion can also get photo-ops, book signings, etc.
Reb, thanks for offering to handle the dinner! Steve "Commando" Carter

Does MNFF get an official invite to show up? Or just 501st & RL

All are welcome! | ||

Everyone is welcome! Since this is a fan event, no "invitations" are necessary and I am sure that Troy will be glad to meet and mingle with all of us during the evening. The respective Legions will honor the request of the publisher to act as "escort" upon entry and exit as well as provide an "honor guard" at the signing table. But all who love Star Wars should be able to have a good time!

Sorry - it was kinda sounding like MNFF wasn't going to be able to show up... that it was a strict costuming event. I was confused I guess.
Reb - you can sign up myself and Jim on that list for dinner for sure!!! BTW: can we only get ONE contact person w/B&N? PLEASE! I know Reb said she talked to someone, and I guess Chad V has also been in contact w/the store. Please please please please!!! ONLY ONE CONTACT PERSON! Otherwise this is where communications get all fouled up because messages don't get passed on and next thing we know costume totes are being confiscated by security and then no one knows what's going on at all. I'd personally want Reb to do it since she's been our spokesperson w/the store before on many many numerous occasions. ------------------

I thought the same thing, Mirax. It started here on MN Force boards, so I figured it was a MN Force event.

Re: All are welcome! | ||

First of all, let me say that I hope that this event and how it gets handled doesn't create any problems of communication of coordination. That is certainly no one's intention.
Next, it probably doesn't help for anyone to think that any one group "owns" an event, regardless of which online forum the discussion crops up in. The event is the kickoff of a national tour that is sponsored by the publisher. So if anyone "owns" it, it is them. That said, the 501st Legion was asked by the publisher and LFL to do some specific things during these events, and the Legion has asked the local garrisons to represent the Legion with the various venues. Chad happens to be the MN State Captain, so he has been asked to represent the 501st Legion to help them honor the publisher's request. Meanwhile, trying to be inclusive, the 501st Legion also asked whether the publisher would allow us to include other LFL-approved costumes in the official "honor guard" and they said OK. Further, since this is also a fan event, Chad and I have agreed that we want to work in opportunities for everyone in the MN Force to be involved as well. After all, we are members too! At the end of the day, we hope that EVERYONE has a good time and that we can all continue to work together to help bring the magic of Star Wars to life. Steve "Commando" Carter
