This event is getting closer- any interest?

They'll give us exclusive use of one of their community centers for changing, storing gear and taking breaks. Free food and drinks will also be provided. For those interested we can also watch their fire works display. The requester also said she could look into discounted hotel rooms for those who want to spend the night.

I'm nearly 100% sure I can make it to this one. It's a slightly shorter drive for me than most troops have been so far. XD

Update from the 501st:

We will need to meet at Locust Grove Middle School 6368 Flat Run Road Locust Grove, VA 225 in the bus parking lot by 8:00AM. From there vehicle passes will be distributed and we will convoy to the changing room/building.
Line up for the parade is at 9:15AM. Vader will lead the us in a corvette and Dan's truck will follow with banners.
After the parade will be the picnic where our lunch will be provided. Anything in addition to the meal you will need to have cash. They will be cooking hotdogs, sliders, and burgers in addition to ribs. As able, we can do photo ops during the picnic. Bring some cash, your swimsuits, folding chairs, change of clothes, sunscreen, games, as well as beverages and food you will want to snack on there.
For those wanting to stay for the fireworks we are looking at doing a dinner push either at the club there on LOTW or a nearby restaurant (or have pizza delivered). We will have access to the pool and lake for swimming.

I'll add the map and parade itinerary sheet when I'm in front of my home computer this evening.

Please post if you can make it to this, they're looking to finalize the numbers!

I'll likely only be there for the parade in the morning, possibly through lunch, but then I have other obligations to attend to.
