As this was our first official meeting, we introduced the Hampton Roads Rebellion to the new members. We had a lively discussion on what Star Wars means to all of us, and what we bring to the club as fans.

We decided that February Cantina Night will be held on the 24th. I will open a thread on what everyone thinks we should do.

February 3rd is a HUGE event for The Hampton Roads Rebellion. We will be hosting 'Watto's Swap Shop'. Members are encouraged to bring any Star Wars Collectible they may not want anymore for purchase or trade. We will have food and entertainment. We ar expecting guests from other groups (The 501st) and maybe some representatives from the FanForce. Let's all bring our 'A' Game for to what promises to be a defining moment for The Rebellion

We discussed the Fanboys troop on April 20th. Word on the street is this film has been pushed back to August. Tony will be looking into this for us. April or August -- there will be a troop for this event
