Report: I was very blown away by everyone arriving on time at 6;15, we were all heading over on time. After being showed our changing facilities and having a run threw of the night ahead we were treated to some pre-dinner drinks and nibbles, which we enjoyable partook of. We then proceeded to the changing area and were all dressed and ready to go. With many happy and excited Jedi and troopers it was hard to hold us back till they were ready for us. After having a small story related around the Star Wars Universe it was time for us to emerge to one of our favourite musical numbers. As instructed, Darth Vader proceeded to the head table to remove the CO’s head to the amusement of the crowd. After many photos and a lot of extremely happy kids (and adults) we were treated to a 3 course meal more drinks then you could imagine and a concert by Guy Sebastian. We de-robed at different times and hung around to enjoy the festivities. It was an AMAZING night; we all had a great time and put so many smiles on so many faces. A HUGE BIG THANKS TO EVERYONE FOR COMING ALONG.

Summery: BEST TROOP EVER. We were treated amazingly well and very much appreciated by everyone there. Great friends + Excellent dinner = FANTASTIC NIGHT

TOTAL RAISED: $23,410.80 for the Cancer Council

I’m beyond amazed and humbled by how much was raised in this night. Thank you so much everyone for the amazing effort you all put in.

Special Mention: I just wanted to give a big hell yeah to Qui Gon Steve for his amazingly awesome new costume. Hope to see it approved soon.

Casualties: NIL

Injuries: M.S hurt one of the chairs with his shin

Armor Repairs: NIL

Happy People: Everybody who attended! (Especially us)

People not happy: No-one. (except maybe the people who had to do the dishes)

speaking to Drew from the Relay 4 Life cancer council, the $23,410.80 that we help raise that night was the largest EVER one off donation the relay 4 life. He was actually literally lost for words when I talked to him. Martina from Torrens Transit said that we were all the talk the following days and they loved it, as did the kids.

The cancer council want to have a ceremonial handing over of the cheque they are so impressed. I hope it's one of those huge novelty cheque's *lol*

I just can't thank all the people who came along enough. When you get people like the cancer council speechless, you've done a great job !! Awesome work guys !!
