Location:
Taco Mac
South Charlotte, NC
Description of Event (Please share as much info as you can):
To finish off a LONG day of trooping on May the 4th, the Carolina Garrison invaded Taco Mac (Southpark Area) in Charlotte, to help promote a "Light Side/Dark Side" Beer event, and help raise a little money for the American Cancer Society.
The troops all arrived and suited up, and were an immediate hit with the patrons. We took pictures with folks inside and outside restaurant, as well as generated a small crowd of passers by from neighboring businesses and restaurants.
And afterwards, we were all treated to a nice cold brew of our choosing and sat in their "private lounge" to relax our weary souls/soles?!
Taco Mac continued to collect receipts for the remainder of the evening on our behalf for donation purposes.
Thank you to all who attended for being real "troopers" over this long day of trooping around Charlotte. It was a blast!
Did this event support a charity? If yes, which charity?:
Yes. Taco Mac raised funds for the American Cancer Society in our name
Event Length (Hours):
7pm-9pm (plus suit up and down time)
Direct Funds Raised? (Money raised directly by the Carolina Garrison):(delete this section if not applicable)
We received $23 cash in direct donations and a whopping $839 in receipt collections, for a total of $862 ! Receipt collections were submitted by Taco Mac Corporate directly to ACS as a check the next day. I will get with Garrison Command Staff for procedures on handling the remaining $23 cash collected.
