From the moment we walked in to the event we were swamped by fans young and old. we could barely take a few steps without being mobbed for photos.
This coupled with shaking of the old donation tin meant that the day was very successful. Not only for the organisers and the 501st but also the amazed fans in the crowds.
Charity Funds Raised: TBC
Injuries / Malfunctions:A glove flying off and dropped E-11 during a coin challenge but none really
Public Incidents:Contagious smiles
Mission Status: Complete and utter success

- and as they say its not a true troop unless a kid cries - well that happened I think twice. And Nick... you also forgot to mention his own child almost running away from him 
I think that was even after he poked his face from under the bucket... go figure!
Smiling kids faces is what it's ALL ABOUT![[Image: 13416849_10154229694613524_4454302520946...cuwbdd.jpg]](http://s1064.photobucket.com/user/Renae_Gordon/media/13416849_10154229694613524_4454302520946489052_o_zps7xcuwbdd.jpg.html)

A BIG THANK YOU TO THE HELPERS "ROSIE" AND "OLD MATE (the other Dave)"!!! AND TO SEAFM MACKAY (Breakfast Announcers Jay and Dave, and their Management) 
funds are going to our local Mackay and Proserpine Hospitals that are in great need of support and its wonderful to see the local community get behind such local causes, especially in the economic climate that Mackay and districts is experiencing with the economic and mining downturn.
