You will all have to go through security with your bins and TSA will check them ER would like us to mingle through Gate 2- Gate 28 stopping for photos ops with passengers at the airport. Private room for storing bins and changing and a parking lot to park in near the terminal which will be validated so FREE parking!

  2. Edward Karl

    I submitted my interest to attend this event as TFA TK (assuming that my wife, Karen Louie, could assist me with the costume and event handler… Karen had previously completed Handler training with Diana Torres). If Karen is not approved to be handler for this event, I would attend as standard Stormtrooper.
