12648 visitors attended FraserPop over the two days celebration celebration of all things pop culture.
Troopers were stationed at our regular post inside the bazaar, surrounded by droids and creatures from across the Galaxy.
The new Astromech proved to be popular amongst visitors despite being mistaken for that rebel droid on the Empire’s most wanted list. Citizens surrounded our post just to get holo-images with the Legion’s Officers, Stormtrooper Commander, Captain Rex, dirty Sandtroopers and a pesky Jawa intent on stealing Imperial droids.
There were some amazing Star Wars costumes among the many outstanding cosplays in attendance and a lot of interest from some citizens in joining the Legion. Hopefully we will see some new recruits soon.
A huge thank you to all the awesome troopers that help give us a presence at this fun event. 2027 will be FraserPop 10. You won’t want to miss this one do mark your calendars July 17th and 18th 2027.
Charity funds raised:
In addition to our raffle with some amazing prizes donated by our generous troopers, we also held a lolly guessing game. Players had the opportunity to win one of three lolly jars (plus extra items) by choosing the random number assigned to each jar from 250 numbers.
We raised $603 from our raffle and $166 from the lolly game for a total of $769 over the weekend for the Maryborough and District Animal Refuge.
