    Hey Gang,
    I know it's short notice, but we're having a little charity event here in Columbia the weekend after next. Its been posted over on the 501st/70th boards, but Fan Force is invited as well. It is the Great Strides Charity Walk for Cystic Fibrosis on April 28th at Stephens Park (Columbia, MO).

    We need to be there between 8:00 - 8:30am. Check in for the walkers starts at 9:00am. The walk starts at 10:00am. Water and *lunch* will be provided to us. (yea!) This will be our first 501st/FF event in Central MO, so we're really hoping for a good turnout!

    To quote Chris Adams' post over on the 70th boards:

    >>Depending on how many people are attending will determine our plan for the day. I would like us there to meet and greet everyone as they check-in at 9am and then be around the area when the walk starts. If people are willing, I think we should actually participate in the "walk" with the kids.

    I will have a map and directions available as soon as possible.

    Hey, thanks for stopping by. Hopefully someone else from KC may be able to, but unfortunately the Mrs. and I have a family commitment on the 28th :( Actually I think we're committed most weekends until some time in July :( Hopefully we can help you out with something else soon, I went to school in Columbia and miss it sometimes ;)
