Members of the Carolina Garrison invaded Myrtle Beach on Friday, March 24, 2015 for “Star Wars Night” at the Myrtle Beach Pelicans baseball game. We even found a few pesky Jedi along the way, which we joined forces with temporarily, to entertain the crowd. We escorted folks out to the mound to have them throw out the first pitch, lined up with the team for the National Anthem, and then proceeded to mingle with the fans throughout the game, taking pictures and signing “autographs”. It was a great time, and we had a fantastic turnout.
We also had the honor of presenting Nick Dewsnap, a retired military veteran and Horry County police officer, with a “Thank You For Your Service” Challenge Coin while at the game. Nick also provided the Garrison with professional photos during the evening out of his love for the 501st Legion and what we do.
