I have signed on as a handler, but my scout trooper should be finished and approved by then
If there aren’t enough TK’s, I will attend as a scout, so it’s nice to know that there’s another for the symmetry they requested. This is always the same request, but I have done 4 of these and a mix of costumes usually show up. I’d definitely prefer we stick to the requested costumes.
If there arent enough TKs I’ll go as a snowtrooper
Moved to a Saturday event. Checking to see if wife will be handler, if not I will try to find someone.
Please sign up Christine Miller as a handler. She doesn’t have board access.
Her account is now activated… She should be able to sign up
Got it, thanks!
How can I set up board access for my daughter who would like to be a handler if possible and selected
She can just set up / create an account – for TKID just note Handler
Connie Hutchens can be a handler with me.
If Raleigh does not pan out
There’s 3 scouts and 2 snowies listed in addition to the 5 TKs, Vader and lone Tie Pilot. For symmetry, I guess I can back out bringing the scouts to an even number (although Taylor and I were probably gonna carpool from Charleston). Maybe I will tag along as a videographer?
I signed up to be sure we have a backup Vader – I can be a handler as well if needed.
I will probably will need a handler if anyone interested. Fun getting on TK armor. Maybe biker scout would had been a better choice. lol.
If I get Vader spot my wife Connie has always been my handler and helps others also. Dose she now need to have an account to sign up for that?
Yes, please
Ok, how do I sign my wife up with an account as handler only?
She has to have her own account. If she doesn’t have one then she can create one and just say handler when signing up.
She went to the membership inquiry, is that correct ?

I can do either TK, or bring R2
Would like to be a handler for Monty D. Plus any other that need help.
I plan to troop as TK and my wife will be the R2 handler and operator
Do you guys NEED or want any Mando’s for this event?
Sorry, the specific armor request comes directly from Weird Al (and approved by LFL)… we can’t take anything not his is specified list.
With the approval of the Legion Membership Officers (LMOs), we are reviewing the members who have signed up for the Weird Al concert and asking each of you to complete a quick costume check.
Between May 16th, and June 16th, please put on your full kit and send one clear front-facing photo of yourself in costume with a thumbs-up.
This is not a full re-approval. It’s simply a quick once-over so the Garrison GMLs can verify that your costume is in good shape and ready for this high-visibility event. Just send your pic to one of them: Ishy, Ernie, Joseph, Maddie, or Richard.
The reason for this check is due to the nature of the request: Weird Al is asking for even numbers of troopers. If one person has a catastrophic costume failure close to the event, it could cause us to fall short by two. We want to address any potential issues as early as possible so no one is sidelined at the last minute.
Email 501st.mynock@gmail.com and let me know which you are signing up for and with which costume…
For example Trooper John Smith’s list would look like this:
Costumes: Darth Vader, StormTrooper: ANH, Scout Trooper RotJ, Snow Trooper ESB
Primary – Wilmington
Secondary – Raleigh
Tertiary – None
I’ll bring our my snowtrooper for this.
Bummer – had a work event get scheduled that weekend so myself and daughter Faith unable to attend
Please keep in mind that this event is not open to the rest of the Legion and there are a limited number of slots, and priority must go to Carolina Garrison members first. Since Weird Al requested even numbers, the most likely scenario where we would need someone from outside the Garrison is if we end up with an odd number and need one more to balance it out. However, there are enough signups that I do not foresee this happening.
4 days left and I still need photos from members sent to a GML
James Holly will be operating R2.
