July 19, 2008 - Ronald McDonald House

My first official "Troop" as a member of the 501st.

We were asked to appear at a Star Wars Meet and Greet at the new Ronald McDonald House in Atlanta, GA at Emory. Ronald McDonald House creates a home-away-from-home and supportive community for families of children with life-threatening illnesses receiving specialized treatment at local hospitals. There were only a few kids there since the event was on a Saturday, and most families use the weekend as an opportunity to enjoy some days away from the facility. But hopefully those few that were there enjoyed seeing and taking photos with us. My Wife even joined in with us donning a generic Jedi costume.

Liz - Jedi/Sith

Madog - Costume Support/Photographer
