For the 7th consecutive year, the Alabama Garrison will be trooping the Make-A-Wish Foundation’s “Stories of Light” fundraiser at Parkway Place Mall in Huntsville. The event will be on Saturday, December 5th, 2009.

For a $5 donation to Make-A-Wish, you will receive a hard copy/printed picture of your meeting with a favorite STAR WARS characters as a souvenir. How cool is that?!

For the past 2 years, we’ve raised over $2000 per event. The Make-A-Wish Foundation says that we hold the record for fund-raising for them in Huntsville, so let’s continue the tradition!

In 2007, we raised $2200. In 2008, we raised $2500.

How much will we raise this year?

Look for us on the lower level, near Customer Service. Stop by, meet Darth Vader, Boba Fett, and the Stormtroopers… and help us set a BRAND NEW record!

Very special thanks to Fetthunter for handling the event coordination!

We’ve got TONS of events yet to chronicle here, and hundreds of pics being uploaded over the next several weeks. more…
