Brandy Smith, the wife of 501st member Dan Smith. is a the art teacher at Farmington Woods Elementary in Cary. Farmington Woods Elementary is one of the top Elementary Magnet schools in the country and received the award as the National Magnet School of Distinction earlier this year! They hosted members of the 501st to kick off a Star Wars themed Space Day that featured Space Themed curriculum for all of their third grade classes.

501st Troopers present:
Dan Smith - TD 44834
Seth Bosecker - TK 22298

We arrived at 8:30 and suited up to kick off an assembly that laid out the days activities. Then we oversaw Mrs. Smiths art class while the kids drew collaborative 'create a Universe murals'. Before leaving to prepare for a mission at the Marbles Museum in Raleigh that evening, we conducted a tour of the school to make sure it was up to proper Imperial standards. Seeing the faces of the kids as we entered their classrooms for the surprise inspection was priceless!

Personal thanks to Seth for joining me on my first official troop for the 501st, it was a great one!
