    On the Saturday Night of the festival there will be a Star Wars Disco in the Royal Valentia Hotel. Maybe a few lids could be brought down instead of full armour.

    A great event to raise funds and awareness for Pieta House, just a few minutes down the road during our Portmagee festival weekend. It's a very early start at 4am, but should be wrapped up between 6am and 7am so plenty of time to recharge and grab a fry up before the day's trooping begins at 10am! There will be secure changing in Coláiste na Sceilge School, about 1km west of Cahersiveen on the road to Portmagee, which is the start and end point for the walk. It's a great cause in and of itself, but it should also create some extra goodwill locally for the festival.

    Its been a really difficult one to try and sort out this year with such a reduced budget, but here it is. The May the 4th Be With You Festival will begin on Wednesday May the 4th with an opening ceremony in Portmagee. If there are any troopers that could make it along to the opening ceremony that would be fantastic. Im talking about the guys who dont have to travel that far. With regard to the rest of the week, the 501st are not really needed until the Saturday and the Sunday. We have booked one of our usual houses in Portmagee. I can accommodate 9 people in this house. There will be sharing rooms. Its the only way I can get 9 into the house. I can only offer €100 to anyone who is thinking about coming down. I just cant stretch it any further than that. There will be a €500 donation made to charity. Galatic Academy: I mentioned before that this year with such a tight budget, I cant accommodate families the way I did in previous years. But what I can say is this, if you have a son/daughter that would like to come down with you I can arrange for you both to be accommodated in a double room. Thats the only way I can find thats a work around. If that is acceptable, just let me know and I can arrange this. For the two days of the festival we will be required to have a presence in the Portmagee community centre where a small comic con will take place. We'd be looking for a few troopers to patrol around the village for photo shoots and thats really it for both days. If anyone elase would like to come down on there own bat, the more the merrier. Those of you who have done Portmagee can attest to it being a brilliant weekend and a great catch up for all the 501st team. The accommodation is booked for Friday May 6th up until checkout day which is Monday May 9th. The Friday is handy for those who want to head down the day before. Unfortunantely I cannot make it down this year. I have a small operation on the Saturday morning. I'll still be involved though online. I'll have more info about our online stuff shortly If anyone has any questions, Im happy to answer any of them.

    Thanks very much for following up on this, but regretfully have committed to conclude a work project early next week which will take some of my time over the weekend. Hope everyone has a blast and takes lots of photos!!! The hype and media coverage of the work we do has been amazing, and definitely look forward to participating in this one next year.

    Hi guys. I got the mail below from Tracy Ann who's son has recently beat cancer but still has some recovering to do. Hi I got your details from a lady in America. My son has recently beaten cancer (Crumlin Hospital) and has his Confirmation coming up in May and I'm trying to organise something a bit different for him. I'm wondering how much this will cost and what I would need to do? He loves Star Wars and climbed Skellig Michael last year (he was sick at the time we just didn't realise that he had cancer). Many thanks Tracy-Ann Its been a while since we did a home appearance and these appearances are very special (those of us who have done them before can attest to that). His confirmation is on May 6th but they are going to have a small private celebration at home in their garden on the 7th. I know a lot of the team are down in Portmagee on that date, but perhaps we may have a few troopers free that are not heading down. The family live in Navan. We can get changed in one of the bedrooms in the house. Tracy reckons that they can get us into the house and into the room without her son seeing us. Hopefully we might be able to get one or two troopers to do this one. EVENT - Cillians Confirmation LOCATION - 9 Elm Drive, Athlumney Wood,Navan, Co. Meath, C15 FT8R DATE -Satuday May 7th TIME - 1430 POC - Tracy Ann Mahady COSTUMES - 501st, Rebel Legion, GA, STAFF DEALING WITH EVENT - Dave Trooping:

    Great to see a request come in for a con that we have been attending for years. The Cosmic Rebel Con is held in the Riverside Park Hotel. Its a fantastic day and I have no doubt it will be a huge success after two years away from the scene. A safe and secure changing area will be provided along with refreshments and snacks. Ed Doyle who is one of our Reel Icons team is the organiser of the con and he tells us that the charity they will be donating to this year is Friends of the Earth.

    Unfortunately folks, due to on going health issues with my little man, I will not be able to attend any troops for the time being. I am gutted to miss this and upcoming troops, but I have to play it safe with Dylan. If anyone is passing through Tralee on the way to or from Portmagee, I would love to be able to meet up for a quick coffee!! Thanks folks and have a blast!!
