Saturday, December 10, 2011 (North Little Rock, AR) -- This weekend members of the 501st Legion of Imperial Stormtrooprs will be joining forces with The Salvation Army's Red Kettle Campaign. The 501st Legion is an international fan-based organization dedicated to the construction and wearing of screen-accurate replicas of Imperial Stormtrooper armor, Imperial officer uniforms, Clone Troopers and other villains and nefarious characters from the Star Wars universe.
Members of the 501st will be ringing at McCain Mall in North Little Rock Saturday from 4pm-8pm. The Red Kettle Campaign is the largest annual fundraiser benefiting The Salvation Army. Funds raised at the red kettles fund programs that feed the hungry, shelter the homeless, provide relief during disaster, educate and mentor young people, and provide comfort to veterans in the VA system.
MERRY CHRISTMAS, STAR WARS FANS!!! =)
