Comments:
This is a holiday party for California Highway Patrol and other first responder families. We’ve had members of the 501st attend in the past, and live having you there! We’ve had as many as 8 members, and as few as 4. We know this is all volunteer, and a busy time of year, and as usual, we’re happy to have whomever wants to come. We host this as a potluck, so we’ll have food and beverages for the folks who attend. Once we know how many (if any) are attending, we will secure parking spaces for them, and the men’s and women’s locker rooms, or gym can be secured for changing in/ out of costume. We’ll have party games & crafts, too. There’s usually a K-9 demonstration, and the “big event” is when Santa arrives – usually by helicopter (weather permitting) Our hosts are big fans of Captain Rex so if you’ve got someone who dresses as Rex, we’d love to have them!! We usually make a donation to the CHP Widows and Orphans Fund in the amount of $158.10 – as we first met members of the 501st at Officer Kirk Greiss’ memorial service, and his badge number was 15810. We’re happy to donate that amount to another charity if you’d prefer.
