This will be a costumed event for everyone in the group that wishes to participate. We will also be pushing a stoller or other wheeled device that will hold a boombox to play cantina music and other Star Wars songs.

Another idea was that those who desired to could randomly break out into some coreographed dance moves.

Bloomsday is a fun event I hope to see all of you with us this year />

I would like to see people post their possible participation and what they would like to be dresses as. Maybe list the costume you already have as a back-up and then list what you would like to go as. This can also help us with the costuming club, so we know what to help you make.


Eledaia - Ceremonial Leia(done)
Wookie (need to make) or
Ewok Village Leia (need to make) or
Mandalor Unit (need to make)

Oh, and I'm definitely doing this again!

I like that idea... you'd look good in it, and it'd probably be comfortable

*starts cleaning up the sappiness *


Green Twi'lek (done - for the most part)
Barriss Offee (need to make)

HEY! You leave that sappiness right where you found it missy!

Star Wars costumes
Stormtrooper - completed
Imperial officer - completed
Mandalorian - comleted but need lots of fixing

NON Star Wars costumes
Hogwarts Slytherin house robe - completed
Green satin cloak (many possibilities) - 90% completed

Need/like to make
Royal Gaurd
Dash Rendar (prefered)

Dash Rendar
W00t!

If I do Bloomsday, it would be in my Philip J. Fry getup.

My Jedi costume is too warm for such an event (great for nights tho), as is just about any Star Wars costume I would want to make (Zuckuss, Wookiee...).

Royal Guard? COOL!

Oh a royal guard, that is really cool. I would really want to be one of those, but I do not have that kind of money.

More than likely I will show up for that in a blue jedi tunic and possibly black cloak (thinking that may not be a good idea depending on weather).

FEES

$14 ( if done online) plus $0.99 online processing fee through April 23rd.

$30 (if done online) plus $2.97 online processing fee on April 24th and 25th.


Also, please note that the late entry fee is now $30 instead of $25.

Wasn't sure where to post this but here seemed good enough. I found another 501st member that is local. He lives in Lewiston and said he'd be interested in joining us for events such as Bloomsday, etc. He even has a website www.tk2668.20m.com.

I'm applying for 501st membership, but until I get some quality pics it may take awhile. But hey, now we have at least 2 stormtroopers within 100 miles! On their forums they also hint at others around the area, I'll have to get nosy and ask around.

Also, I'm debtating on doing Bloomsday..... with only one costume that is all black and hot... not sure if I trust the weather this far in advance.

*bump*

Oh yea, I tried my best to talk Nathaniel into it, but he refused to budge. Stubborn miniature brother...

John and I just registered!

I still havn't registered. I can't do it online, because I don;t have a credit card. Are there still options for in-person registry before the last minute stands on May 5/6?

So people know this is what I will be wearing for bloomsday, not sure if I will wear my cloak as well:
