Description of Event (Please share as much info as you can):
Every year the Winston Salem Symphony does a Discovery concert series for children and their families. This year one of the Concerts was the Star Wars Discovery Concert. This was the second Star Wars concert the Carolina Garrison has done with the Winston Salem Symphony. This concert featured the music of John Williams that we all know and love. A normal crowd for a discovery concert is around 500-600 however once word got out that the Carolina Garrison was going to be in attendance, this concert went to a sell out crowd of 1500 plus, making it once again one of their most successful Discovery concert ever. For the concert, We had a table display along with numerous banners set up around the venue. The symphony had the garrison come on stage for certain songs and interact with the crowds on others. We were honored to have Kal Edly (Darth Vader) present for his first ever troop? This was an awesome troop, we have a great working relationship with the Winston Salem Symphony and look forward to working with them again.
After the concert the Garrison headed over to Foothills brewery, where we had a private room, for some after troop dinner.

Awesome write up. This was indeed my first troop ever and it was a great experience! I enjoyed meeting everyone and seeing the huge diversity of costumes present, and I’m really excited to get out there and do some more events. Thanks to everyone who attended.
