But we can do time incriments. Last year they had a cool down tent for the characters out on the field which was nice....then we went into the air conditioned bldg for a bit. I just know the kids were all asking about Vader last year...so I told em he was skeered of me Hope you can make it! _________________ Obi John Kenobi, young and not-so-young Han Solo, everything but the hair ARC-77 (aka Fordo), standard issue Luke Skywalker, light-hearted version

Valshar Aran Force Sensitive Joined: 01 Apr 2011 Posts: 35 Location: Lawton, OK That would be awesome if you could come down! We do a couple hours in the morning, break for lunch, then a couple hours in the afternoon. We also have a safe area that we can take our buckets off and have some water and stuff. I know last year all the kids were asking where darth vader was. Obi made up a pretty good bs story on the spot to tell them! I'm going to also bring a cooler of Gatorade for us as well. Any other drink requests? And to make things easier I drive a big ol red F150 with a mythosaur skull on the back and I'll park by the ATM in the Walmart parking lot.

Shawn Vader Jedi Knight Joined: 30 Jul 2009 Posts: 1398 Location: Oklahoma City, OK I seriously doubt my neck/shoulders could do an all-day event. Is there a particular time that is better to be seen? Like what is the best time slot? My new helmet puts a hurting on me after about 2 hours. I'm sure with breaks where I can take the helmet off, I could pull 3 hours or so. I'm also concerned about the heat more than usual, because it also does not have any airflow through the helmet. The two mouth grills are it and yes, I do have a fan blowing outward which helps. Anyone bringing a handler? I won't have one with me. _________________ www.facebook.com/shawnlippe

Honestly even if you were only able to go out there for 30 minutes in the morning and 30 in the afternoon, the kids would be absolutely thrilled. As far as time, just let me know when you guys want to meet up and I'll be there. I'm not the one that has to make a far drive.
