(SC) April 24 -Pelicans Baseball SW Night (Myrtle Beach)

[JerryVader]

The Carolina Garrison invaded Myrtle Beach this past Friday for "Star Wars Night" at the Myrtle Beach Pelicans game. We event 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. Many thanks to those who were in attendance from the Carolina Garrison, the Rebel Legion, and our handlers/photographers:

Jerry Sienkiewicz - ROTS Vader
Al de Lachica - Jedi (RL)

I have also reached out to the Event Contact, to get a final total on the Charity Donation $ amount made from the Evening, and will update the report with that information when I get a reply.

This was a fantastic event. Of all the events I've done with a "sports team", this one may have been the best one I've been a part of. Such a great time was had and the Myrtle Beach Pelicans staff really had their night organized and planned out for us. I would definitely do this one again.

I'm working on the 2015 charity totals for the Garrison, were you ever able to find out what charity this was for and how much was raised?

Thanks!
