I'd be willing to do a few hours! I've pm'd Nicky the details and i'll donate one of my autographed photos and one or two non-autographed photos for the auction. Looking forward to the weekend, even though I still don't think i'll have that Jedi robe done. Looking forward to seeing you all!

If SCJ is willing, we could combine raffles so that we aren't competing for people's money.
The 501st/RL is planning to have a large-ish prize pack for the first person's name picked out of the bucket and if we sell enough tickets we may pick more names for some smaller prize packs.
The current plan is to support the American Cancer Society after speaking with the promotor.

LOL no I wasnt complaining about compteting for peoples money. I just wanted SCJ to have something at their table as a draw.
At this point in time SCJ will not be doing a raffle so its not big deal. We havea few things going on at the table that we should be fine happy If you want to give me some info on it I can direct people to the raffle. Thanks for the offer though Nicky. Should be a fun day sounds like there will be a ton of people there from various groups. Cant wait !

Do u have any other information regarding the table and free passes? I dont like not knowing set up time, pass information for members etc. Is it for sure we are having a table there? I need to know if there is room for a banner.

Nicky do u have Jeffs contact info maybe I can figure things out that way it may be easier. happy
Thanks !

Well, I was complaining about competing for people's money. tongue
I've found, with doing joint events in the past, that having multiple raffles just hurts both groups. But, as you say - the point it moot.

I've PMd you all the info I have so far about tables and passes.
Is anyone other than you and Christine planning to attend?
According to the website, the con starts at 10am. As far as I know we can start setting up as early as 8am, although personally I don't think I'll be getting there before 9am considering the 1.5 hour drive and kids.

The table should be the standard 6' and should fit a banner along the front of it.

I can PM you his email again in a minute.

I agree, usually on joint events we combine raffles. Like I said I have no problem since our tables are side by side to direct them to your raffle. No sense in having two raffle boxes LOL

As far as members attending, we have a couple of active members who really wanted to attend and help with the table. So I would need to get them in. I hate to make them pay to work like I did last year. sad

I did get your PM regarding Jeff, the email I have for him is the same oine and it gets returned everytime I send it sad
I really hate scrambling at the last minute to get our table ready and its friday so the more information I have by tonight the better since I am working all weekend and will be away from the computer. I need to convey info to our members.

Only information I have is I have a free pass and a table. that was confirmed a few days ago. I have no other info than that. wink

I will plan on being there early to set up, but like I said I need a few of SCJ members there to help with the table. this con is pretty cruicial for us to try to recruit and revive our dwindling group.

I look forward to seeing everyone again happy

I have not received any information regarding free passes for those not in the 501st or Rebel Legion.
You were offered a free pass last year and unfortunately declined it.

What other information do you need?
If you email isn't working perhaps signing up for the Syracuse Heroes Expo forums would be another way to get a message to the promotor.

you have his number based on your PM me, is it possible for you to call him and give him my number? if that simplifies things for you.

Well since you are a member of the 501st, you can go to the Garrison boards and put your name in for a free pass.
As was the policy last year, all Garrison members who notify the garrison boards get a free pass.

Last year is moot. This year she has already put her name down on Excelsior's boards.
And I have already PM'd you his phone number.

~Doc_Bev

EDIT: I was just reminded... everyone was only offered a partial refund last year as we didn't have enough tickets to go around.

I called the number under "contact us" on the website, and Jeff answered. I was curious whether tickets cost more at the door. I talked to him for awhile, seemed like a real nice guy, wanted me to find him and shake his hand

great. I will check my Pm's and call him. happy
I also wanted to add that some of our SCJ members are not 501st and are working the table so trying to get them in to work the con has been a challenge

Yup, same number that's on his website.
I just didn't think to look there as I already had it saved on my computer from last year.
