After having (mostly) completed my costume last Fall and having it sitting on a mannequin since then, I finally was able to show it off in public today. Our local symphony here in Mankato, MN performed three concerts of John Williams music throughout the day for local 4-6 graders. I was able to join in with a group of great guys (and gals) from the MN Force and the 501st Central Garrison who came down from the Twin Cities area. Went pretty good for the first time and have figured out that some modifications need to be made. It was an awesome feeling to see the kids freak out when they saw me and the others suited up. Looking forward to the next time....
