	Name: Alissa Age: 16 Location: On a mountain a ways outside of Spokane SW Related Interests: Just about everything, I love the books, I like the few games that I've played, I love the movies, and I really want to do costuming! Non-SW Related Interests: Jesus!!! I also love medieval stuff, I'm interested in all kinds of martial arts (though I don't know much of anything in that area). I especially want to learn sword fighting and Karate! How did you get started on SW: I wasn't alowed to see Star Wars until I was 14 - I think. Anyways, it was just before Episode II was released, so I'm kinda new to Star Wars. Since than I've been trying to read all the books and have made it to 120 or so. I love it and I think it'd be so fun to be around a bunch of other Star Wars nuts! I'm not sure in what thread I should ask this, but what do you all do together at your meetings and all? And are they always usually at night? Thanks! -----signature----- May the Lord be with you!

	Welcome to the Spokantina Alissa, and welcome to Star Wars Fandom!!! I'm Jarus Sarn (you can call me John if you prefer, I respond to either ), the Spokantina webmaster, if there's anything I can do, please let me know. I'll do my best to answer your first questions... What do you all do together at your meetings and all? We have fun! That's always our number 1 priority We talk a lot about Star Wars and upcoming events, keep eachother in the know about what's going on in the community, we plan for events, like Bloomsday and Pig Out in the Park. Sometimes we play lots of videogames, sometimes we play boardgames... sometimes we watch movies. What do you want to do at a Fan Force meeting Alissa? We're a loose, fun group and we like to make sure everyone is heard, and everyone has a good time. Are they always usually at night? Well, it's true that most of our meetings are in the late evening, and that's mostly because of work/school/personal schedules, it's easier for most members to make a later time. But our meetings aren't always late, sometimes we have meetings more in the middle of the day, sometimes meetings are all-day affairs, a "come when you can" kind of thing. Since I've got you here, and you're interested in costuming... I might as well tell you that you're in luck! We've got a costuming workday coming up this Saturday (Jan, 21st) starting at 10am and going till whenever. If you've got a costume you're currently working on, or one you'd like to start planning for, this is the perfect place to get help and ideas! We've got an awesome group of costumers here and we're always looking for more. That was a bit long winded, but I hope it answered your questions... you can get an idea of what our group does at our website, we've got an image gallery and a member page. Hope to see you at a future meeting Alissa! -----signature----- Jarus Sarn • Corellian Smuggler "If one of your hands touches metal, I swear by my pretty floral bonet, I will end you" I'm probably one of the only people on the planet completely unexcited for "The Old Republic" :\ www.mmOverview.com www.SpoCon.org

	Welcome to the group. Glad you could join us. Just about everyone in the group has a costume of one sort or another. Theres everything from Jedi to Sith Lords and even a few Stormtroopers. Im the only active trooper tho. John/Jarus/Baka is right that we do like to have fun. We also love to give eachother a hard time. If were not talking about Star Wars, we are usally insulting John. Anyway, welcome again. -----signature----- Being a Stormtrooper I've realized something, There are two kinds of people in the Galaxy. The Imperials... And the rest are moving targets.

	Or playing Halo 2 I'm Erich and I usually don't respond to Daramin, but it sounds cool. We definitely are all about the fun having and costuming is becoming a bigger to do as well.

	Thanks for the welcome everyone! And for answering my questions it helped alot! I really would like to do stuff with you all, it all sounds like so much fun!! I just know that I won't be able to go to any night-time meetings because we live a ways outside of town. I haven't the slightest idea what I'd want to do at a meeting, it sounds like you all already do alot of different stuff, and have alot of fun! I'd love to go to the costuming workday, but I'll have to get an ok with my parents. Thanks for inviting me! I don't actually have a costume that I'm working on yet, but I'm hoping to make a lightsaber hilt pretty soon. Anyway, thanks again! ~Alissa -----signature----- May the Lord be with you!

	Eh, I don't have a costume either. It's in a perpetual concept process. In other words, I can't make up my mind! -----signature----- Jesus loves you all!

	If it'd help ease your parents minds, feel free to have them give me a call to answer any questions they might have, I can be reached at my cell phone (208) 691-7650 anytime. If you need a ride to and from a meeting or event, don't hesitate to ask, I'm sure someone would be willing to pick you up and drop you off (with your parent's approval, of course ) It might help to point out to your parents that we have been on TV a few occasions and that we've been mentioned in a few newspaper articles... so we're not just a strange group of dorks... we actually do get around, and we'd like to start doing some charity events and parades this year. Also, we've got a few members who build lightsaber hilts, and I'm sure they'd all be willing to give you some pointers -----signature----- Jarus Sarn • Corellian Smuggler "If one of your hands touches metal, I swear by my pretty floral bonet, I will end you" I'm probably one of the only people on the planet completely unexcited for "The Old Republic" :\ www.mmOverview.com www.SpoCon.org

	You know Alissa, we may be able to start the meeting up early this Saturday if you'd like to join us, I know we've got the fellas from Tri-Cities coming up again, (YAY! you guys rock, I had a blast last time!) and I'm sure they'd appreciate an earlier meeting time. I can't think of anything else I'm doing Saturday, so it might as well be an earlier thing, anyone have any objections? Hmm... perhaps I should start a new thread... -----signature----- Jarus Sarn • Corellian Smuggler "If one of your hands touches metal, I swear by my pretty floral bonet, I will end you" I'm probably one of the only people on the planet completely unexcited for "The Old Republic" :\ www.mmOverview.com www.SpoCon.org
