Description of Event (Please share as much info as you can):
Late notice of event and time, along member availability conflicted with another nearby event.
Free Comic Book Day is an annual event that celebrates comic books and encourages both the established comic fan and the novice to come in and find something that may interest them. FCBD is held the first Saturday in May. The comic book industry comes together to give away free comics, and to encourage reading and support of this specialized literature.
I arrived by 0930 and was dressed out by 1030. I made rounds, greeted guests, took photos, and even provided some info about the 501st to interested parties, including a gentleman who did an excellent (to my novice eyes) Krennic.
As this was a joint venture with another fan group, I also assisted in with the nerf firing range that they had brought for the kids.

Some pics were taken and as I get copies, I will post.

On 4/19 I received a response that said I had full access...I resubmitted early this week because I realized I hadn't received any new access after my initial request.

I have requested access...I'll request again

What do I need to do to sign up for Garrison Troops?

And I have submitted pics for costume approvals

I finally have my boots and gloves...so I should have everything for my Tie Reserve, Imperial Crewman, and Imperial Scanner Crewman. Pictures taken and submitted tomorrow...Hoping to get approved by Celebration ( I Know I am cutting it close!)

Things have gone much slower than I had originally thought.
I am hoping to have my Tie Reserve, Imperial Crewman, and Imperial Scanner ready for submission within the next 3 to 4 weeks.

If approved in time I am hoping to participate with the 501st at SC Comicon (Greenville, SC) if the Carolina Garrison is attending again.

I am attending Celebration for Friday and Saturday...I can't wait

Hello,

My name is Steven and I currently reside in Greenville, SC. I have been a long-LONG time fan of Star Wars and have recently started getting involved with fangroups.

I am starting the process of developing a Tie Pilot Reserve outfit with the ultimate plan to create a Tie Pilot uniform.

I am also interested in eventually creating a Force Awakens Tie Pilot uniform.

I have already joined the Jolly Roger Squadron page & forum and have been reviewing everything I can get my hands on over the last few days.

Hopefully I will have my Tie Pilot Reserve outfit completed in the next 3-4 months so I can move onto the approval phase and formally join the 501st and the Carolina Garrison.

Any input and guidance will be appreciated as I move forward.

I am also opening to helping in an unofficial capacity until I am formally approved.
