Please wait for me to escort you through Gate C and to the event space, do not attempt to drive there by yourself if someone else opens the gate.

Comments from ER: The Congenital Heart Walk series supports the mission of The Children’s Heart Foundation: to advance the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of congenital heart defects (CHDs) by funding the most promising research. This event will have fun activities, entertainment, research updates, and our family-friendly walk. Join us as we raise funds to save and improve the lives of those living with CHDs! 501st Golden Gate Garrison has been an incredible and vital partner of our event for the past several years! We are so excited to be back in person again this year at the San Francisco Zoo. Our event will take place on the Great Lawn away from animals, so light sabers and noise makers are allowed. We will, unfortunately, not be able to provide a secure area, however, we can allocate private space away from the event for a changing tent to be staged – I believe one of your characters brought a tent last year, and we provided a private area for the tent to be setup. We are combining the San Francisco and Sacramento Walks this year – I understand that these are two separate Legions, so wanted to make everyone aware. Thank you for your past support and we hope to see you in August!

I can come as Tie Reserve and handle at the same time.
One note: I’ll be Ubering, so no access to a car for things such as tent, etc.
