Calyns home reveal - Rayvn - Friday 20-Jun-2014 Code: Date: 8th June 2014 Venue: private residence Beenleigh Time: 3pm Mission: to support the big reveal of Calyns new improved weelchair accessible home Trooper Attendance: RBG: TKID and username/costume Muppet - Vader Bullant - Stormtrooper Azrael - Stormtrooper Rubber - Sandtrooper The Wolf - Biker Scout Rayvn - Assaj Ventress Nightsister Kitiara - Visas MM/GA etc: Username & costume Lauren - CID-0518 Rory - CRDT-0517 Support Crew / Guest Trooper Attendance: Woodgavin Electra Petros Details: This was the Grand reveal of Calyns newly renovated family home. Larger, in fact doubled in size this once small low set home is now wheelchair accessble and big enough for all of Calyns medical equipment. A peak over the neighbours fence showed a kick ass new tree house, again large enough for Calyn and his siblings to play in. This was a community event organised by Channel 7 who have been following Calyns incredible recovery since the terrible accident. The Broncos were in attendance along with celebrity's from a renovation TV show. Troopers were honoured to meet Victoria Cross recipient Corporal Ben Roberts-Smith. The show will be aired on a Sunday night hosted by Mike Willesee on channel 7. I will provide a date when I have one. It was disappointing we did not get to interact with Calyn this time due to the interview and filming of the TV show. However it was a moving moment to see Calyn and his siblings arrive to thunderous applause and an overhead Australian Army chopper. We were told if we stayed on, we could see Calyn during the street party, but because of after dark safety concerns we decided to sign off and de armour before Sunset. Thank you to all Trooper and Redback Wranglers for helping make this day very special. Charity Funds Raised:community event Injuries / Malfunctions: none Public Incidents:Vader was arrested by two rather attractive police officers Mission Status successful [size=large][b]Photos: RE: Calyns home reveal - Woodgavin - Friday 20-Jun-2014 It was a fun afternoon! I look forward to helping out again and even getting armoured up :D RE: Calyns home reveal - Rayvn - Friday 20-Jun-2014 Was great having an extra wrangler! And thank you for taking the photos looking forward to seeing your armour built. RE: Calyns home reveal - Cyclops - Saturday 21-Jun-2014 Outstanding work for a good cause troops , the youngster really looked like he loves the 501st . Nice report too Rayvn . RE: Calyns home reveal - Rubber - Monday 23-Jun-2014 It was another enjoyable troop. It was great to meet you Woodgavin and thanks for helping Rayvn. I going to have a bit of as rant. A troop report, like being POC, takes a lot to organise and write. 79 have looked at this report and only 2 commented. We are a group of like minded people who support each other and our community. Lets start supporting each other and troops so we can regain that "family" attitude that was part of this great Redback Garrison. RE: Calyns home reveal - Petros - Monday 23-Jun-2014 Hi and sorry for the late photos, have been on Vampire hours, sleeping in the day and awake at night, and sleep deprived with the World Cup. Good Troop Rayvn and a great cause. Bullant and The Kitchen Rules guys Muppet and VC winner Mike Willesee mentioned in his career he has never had a photo with Darth Vader…. well he has now A very happy Darth... RE: Calyns home reveal - Oevil1 - Monday 23-Jun-2014 Bummed I missed this one! What an outstanding effort by all. Great report Ravyn RE: Calyns home reveal - Woodgavin - Monday 23-Jun-2014 Great meeting you also, Rubber! That photo opportunity of Darth being frisked by the police had the crowd laughing quite a bit too. RE: Calyns home reveal - Cre8tiv - Monday 23-Jun-2014 Looks like it was a great troop. Well done! RE: Calyns home reveal - Rayvn - Tuesday 24-Jun-2014 Yes it was fun, and the neighbours kindly donated their loungeroom for us to kit up in and store our gear while they sat outside drinking beer.
