TD-5766 Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 Heroes Convention 2008 This event has been going on for some time now and thousands flock to this growing event each year. Literally hundreds of artist and writers from the comic book world (Marvel, DC, Dark Horse and countless others) fill this event not to mention some well known celebrities come too. For a few years now the organizers of this event have been gracious enough to give us a table and raise money for our charity (Make A Wish). We raised $140 and had a great time to boot. Get this, the event is located at 501 College Street in the Convention Center in Charlotte NC. If you went to any of the Celebrations in Indy, the convention center here looks a lot like that Convention Center. Who knows, we might have a 501st Convention here on 501 College Street..in the Carolinas where it all began. I wanted to thank my fellow Troops for coming out. Cheralyn Lambeth, TB-976 Mike Johnson, SL-9918 Jennifer DeVoll, ID-9551 Troy Papanicolaou, TD-9914 Ashia Yother, ID-2551 Rob Readling, SL-9895 Dave and Ken Jordan, TB-6559 and TB-1345 Luis and Hope Diaz, DZ-6570 and DZ-5232 Matt Davis, ID 5714 Andy Cobb,TD-932 Candice Johnson, IG-5503 And me TD-5766 hehe.

TD-5766 Posted June 27, 2008 Author Share Posted June 27, 2008 Awesome stuff. The Fro and Vader pic rocks. Also, great talking to you, mate. It was good talking to you too. PM me your phone and address bro. We can get together when you come back to Charlotte. Pascal, from the Swiss Garrison, will be in Charlotte late July. Hopefully we can get some folks together to entertain him. He was here last year and we had a blast. My wife and I took him out for some BBQ and my wife made him some good old southern cornbread...he loves that stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
