(NC) Sep 20 - Asheville Comic Expo (Asheville)

Post by xapologiesx »

This was the 3rd year of the Asheville Comic Expo, which was held at the US Cellular Center in downtown Asheville, NC. ACE offers a nice selection of comic, toy and art vendors from the local area, as well as a lot of top notch costuming by the fans. The Carolina Garrison had a table setup with lots of 501st related items and information available for all the guests who stopped by our area to say hello. We had a great turnout of troopers from the WNC area who took lots of photos and were a huge hit with all the attendees. The turnout was great and it was a fun day for all that were involved.

Troopers Present:
Anthony Conte (TI-28803)
Darron Postell (TK-8236)
Sharon Postell (ID-8239)
Dean Plantamura (TK-899)
Sean Coughlin (TI-9014)
Lorne Ward (BH-4413)
Michael Jarvis (SL-4409) as Jedi

Great time! It was fun patrolling the "upper deck" which gave a great view of the con floor, and the curtained "changing area" behind the table was perfect.

Looks like a fun time. I like the idea of having an elevated view behind the table.
