Hello Salt Lake City! Rachel from San Diego/Inland Empire here.

After following Vader's World Tour a few years back, Master--Kenobi of the Santa Cruz Fanforce has decided to do the same. She is sending her fried Interactive Yoda (who met his doom during a certain scene in Velvet Goldmine) on a US and World tour.

I'm helping her plan the trip, and you guys said you had an interest in joining. So, here's your planning thread. grin

The original planning thread is Here, and a website is in the works.

As a brief update, I spoke to Master--Kenobi yesterday. She's very eager to send the little green guy on his way and is thrilled that so many people are interested. grin As soon as we get a definite list of groups involved (more keep joining!), then we will start planning out a route for him to travel. happy

Thanks again! grin

I've already put our name on the list for it. I'm excited to see Yoda since we missed the Vader Tour.

NEWS:

1) We are putting a cap on joining the tour. The last day to join is next Friday, July 8th. (If any of the other Fanforces in your area wish to join, let them know quick!) wink

2) Each fanforce will have 2 weeks with Yoda. The 2 weeks will start the day Yoda arrives. We ask that in those 2 weeks you take photos of him in "touristy, famous, or just plain cool" locations, and that he is shipped to the next Fanforce before the 2 weeks are up. We will be sending a logbook around with Yoda. The layout of the book has not been completely decided, yet once we know, you'll know. wink

3) And lastly, I am going to need a contact person. Someone in the group who will take full responsibility of Yoda and ensure that he is properly shipped off (and will also send the shipping number to either myself or Master--Kenobi, so we can keep track of him.)

IF I DO NOT HAVE A CONTACT PERSON BY THE TIME THE TOUR BEGINS, I AM SORRY TO SAY WE SHALL HAVE TO REMOVE YOU FROM THE TOUR. sad

What I need from the contact person:
Name, home adress, email, and phone number. No, I'm not going to sell it online. tongue Only two people will have a list of contacts: myself and Master--Kenobi. We need your adresses for shipping, email address to say "Hey, he's on his way, hey he's stuck in a blizzard, etc..", and the phone number will be a "just in case."

Please have your appointed contact person PM me with this information.

Thank you all and we're very eager to begin the tour!! grin

So, how are we going to get it from SLC to Provo or are they in line? I'm frequently up in SLC, so could bring him down. Having pics of Yoda on Trax would be wicked funny.

Apparently, it's coming back to the US in January. Miana needs a contact up in SLC and I had to take the job for Provo because no one else stepped forward. Let's have a planning thread for where we can take him.

Hey, we of the Provo Fanforce know that you couldn't have done it without our cooperation and vice versa. wink

I was just dead tired last night, but couldn't sleep, so I was browsing my old stomping board (well, for a few months anyway) and I saw that. Sorry for jumping the gun, so to speak.
