syntax 359 Report post Posted December 14, 2010 (edited) I wanted to toss an announcement out to everyone about the Muskegon Lumberjacks [LJ] Star Wars night that is coming up this Saturday night, December the 18th [star Wars Night]. The 501st Legion [Here], a Star Wars costuming charity that I am a member of, will be attending to raise money for the Special Olympics. We will have Event patches and other Star Wars goodies for sale, and there will be lots of photo ops for kids of all ages. We'd love to see everyone that can make it out to support the Special Olympics and the Muskegon Lumberjacks! Special thanks to Matt of LGW for allowing me to post this message.

syntax 359 Report post Posted December 14, 2010 wasn't this one of the teams that folded last season in the used to be ihl? or i might be thinking something else.(flint, muskegon and port huron) Yep, the Port Huron Icehawks and the Flint Generals folded. The Muskegon Lumberjacks actually became the Evansville Iceman, and this new Muskegon Lumberjacks team is in the USHL, as posted by Wingnut22. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Travis 576 Report post Posted December 14, 2010 That sounds really awesome. I work Saturday night, but I hope you guys have a great turnout (as I'm sure you will). That's awesome that you're in the 501st, too. I've gotta couple of friends that were thinking strongly about joining after the Motor City Comic Con. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

syntax 359 Report post Posted December 14, 2010 This is the best thing I've ever heard in my life. Please someone who goes get a video of this. Comcast and the Griffins put on a smaller event a few weeks ago. Here is a recap, but sadly, there's no video that I have access to of the Clonetroopers actually singing the anthem: Here's us at a Whitecaps game a few years ago as well: The Port Huron Ice Hawks did this every year. it was always a blast http://www.theforce.net/latestnews/story/port_huron_icehawks_star_wars_night_129016.asp We'll be back in Port Huron (with the Fighting Falcons since the Ice Hawks are gone) on 2/5/11. We'll be @ the Grand Rapids Griffins game on 3/5/11. 1 soultrain reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
