How is parking at the convention center? PARKING at the LA convention center is about $8 -$10. there are 2-3 entrances...i highly suggest getting there early. or you will be waiting in line outside. but there are several parking lots (open-air) across the street or down the street from the center. they will cost from $10 to $30 depending on the locale. but on sunday...to save some $$$...park on street at the meters...SUNDAYS are free in LA COUNTY. so any meter anywhere in LA COUNTY will be FREE. there are several meter parking about 1 block away from the center.

Why between 8:00pm and 8:30pm? There was a poll taken on whether to do an early am or an evening shoot, and the evening shoot won. I personally support the evening shoot for a plethora of reasons I have already stated. As far as why the exact times were selected, our volunteers are engaging in assignments up until 8:00pm. Carrie Fisher has a presentation at 9:00pm. So this is our best window to get folks in costume in the lobby. And I will be asking our friends in the Rebel Legion and the Jedi Assembly to try to fill the 7:00pm hour of volunteer shifts so that our members can be in the lobby promptly at 8:00pm. Why on Saturday? Saturday will be the most highly attended day, and has the fewest conflicts. Thursday evening many will still not be in town yet. Friday evening is Opening Ceremonies. Sunday evening some will actually be leaving to be back at work on Monday. And Monday is obviously a poor option. With the exception of the Carrie Fisher program, I am unaware of anything else going on after 8:00pm on Saturday. Why in the South Hall lobby? I can now tell you that the venue we were holding out for was the Staples Center. We could not discuss it before because the Center was reserved for the NBA playoffs. As the Lakers fell out of the playoff picture, we started a dialogue with the Staples Center to see if we could use their facility for our photo. Unfortunately, the real costs to the Center (security and maintenance staff that would have to be on duty) made it cost prohibitive. The South Hall lobby has the space to do a large photo, and has good lighting. And being indoors makes weather a non-issue. But what if I have tickets to the Carrie Fisher presentation? The “chat with Carrie” or whatever they are calling it is a ticketed event for a room that only seats 2,000 people. Mary Franklin would actually appreciate us providing something for the other 20,000+ who can’t get tickets to Carrie’s event to see and do. What about the multi-club photo? The plan is to invite the other costume clubs to join us after 8:30pm to take some multi-club photos, and to migrate into misc. group photos for an with the public, providing an entertainment alternative for all of those who can’t get in to Carrie’s event. Will anyone special be there? For the 8:00pm to 8:30pm photos, our honorary members (to include our honorary leader Dave Prowse) and other VIPs and celebrities will receive formal invitations to join us for some selected photos. There will be enough preparation and planning to make the photo an orderly and efficient experience, so we plan to have these photos wrapped up by (if not before) 8:30pm to get those with tickets to Carrie’s chat. This will no doubt not be ideal for some of you, and perhaps some will not even be able to (or chose to) make the photo shoot at all. I apologize that we can’t be more accommodating toeveryone, but no matter when we do the photo, it will be inconvenient and maybe even impossible for someone to attend. We ask you to help us make this successful. Try to make it, and try to be on time. In return we will be respectful of your time and complete these photos as quickly as possible. We would also encourage as many as don’t have tickets to Carrie’s event, to stay after the official Legion photos to participate in the multi-club photos and linger to mix and mingle with the fans. You would have the appreciation of a great number of fans and the appreciation of Lucasfilm. _________________ Terminate Transmission Joshua TK,TB,TI,TS,TR,ID,IC,KILTED-0398 'CooR' RL: RFT, X-Wing Pilot, Smuggler (Rebel Infiltrator) Pending TX, IN, CT, Mando, Bith Band Est Solarus Uth Mithas

So please go by the droid builders room and show her some love while you're there. There will be some big news concerning our droid and the Legion, so be there for all the fun. Also, I will be hosting a photo contest on www.r2kt.com the website for our favorite pink droid. All you have to do is swing by the droid builder's room and take the weirdest, funniest, or most memorable picture with the droid you can and send it to me at albinj@sc.rr.com and title it r2kt photo contest. Those are the three categories: weird, funny, and memorable. I'll be posting all entries on the website. The winners of the three categories will receive some 501st swag and top billing on the website! Make sure you go by the website and make r2kt a friend of yours on MySpace! Spread the word! It's time we raised a hero for the kids, and the 501st is definitely the ones to do it. _________________ Terminate Transmission Joshua TK,TB,TI,TS,TR,ID,IC,KILTED-0398 'CooR' RL: RFT, X-Wing Pilot, Smuggler (Rebel Infiltrator) Pending TX, IN, CT, Mando, Bith Band Est Solarus Uth Mithas
