Star Wars & The 501st

I am a member of the 501st Stormtrooper Legion,the world's definitive Imperial costuming organization. More than 2500 members make up the 501st spanning 21 countries. No matter where you live, the power of "Vader's Fist" can be felt through professionally organized charity, fundraising and promotional events featuring the "bad guys" of Star Wars.

I have been a huge Star Wars fan all my life, and the 501st allows me the chance to use that fandom to spread joy and give back to my community.
