This event is a fundraising walk for the Parkinson’s Foundation to support resources for people living with Parkinson’s disease and to fund research toward a cure. It’s also a day for the Parkinson’s community to come together and network and celebrate each other and the challenges they live with and overcome every day. We’d like to add some fun entertainment and photo opportunities at the event. The characters could help motivate and inspire the group during exercise warm ups, cheer along participants during the walk, and provide entertainment to children and adults. Thank you for your consideration and support of the Parkinson’s Foundation and our community.

Here is a little about us and what we do in the community.
Community Action Services and Food Bank is a nonprofit organization in Provo, Utah, that provides a two-step process to solving poverty: first, to provide the resources to help stabilize the person’s crisis, and then to help them rebuild their life. Since 1967, our agency has helped stabilize the crises in the lives of people in need by meeting their basic critical needs (such as food and housing) while providing them with the long-term solutions needed to rebuild their financial and social self-sufficiency, enabling them to break out of poverty.

2024-05-04 13:00 - 16:00 | Granite Library, 3331 S 500 E, South Salt Lake, UT, 84106, United States
From the requester:

Granite Library’s Mayfest is an annual event on the first Saturday of May. Because it’s May the 4th, we are doing a Star Wars themed event. We have music, crafts, games, food, and other activities for the participants, all free of charge. We also have community partners come to the event, such as local animal shelters. We would love to have any available members of the 501st come to walk around and interact with the attendees. If possible, they could assist with a Jedi quest that the attendees can choose to complete – it will consist of answering trivia questions, a scavenger hunt, and physical challenges – with costumed characters asking the trivia questions and stamping their quest card.
Of course, we know this is a very popular date and I’m sure there is a high demand for your volunteers, so we would be happy to host anyone interested in coming, even for just part of the event. Please let us know if you have any other questions. Thanks so much for considering us!

Invasion of Carbon High School
2024-05-06 09:30 - 11:30 | Carbon High School, 750 East 400 North, Price, UT, 84501, United States
From our requestor:
I’m a public school teacher and a huge Star Wars fan and Rebel Force Radio listener. It’s been a dream of mine to organize an event where the Empire invades our high school. I would of course brief our faculty and staff about the event well in advance, but here’s what I imagine the event could be… That Monday morning we could hopefully set you up to change into wardrobe in our trailers behind the school. Then, during our Advisory period the Empire would invade the school. Stormtroopers and Imp Officers would go in pairs to each classroom and order the students and teachers to go to the gym. Once everyone has gathered in the gym you guys could do an assembly where you talk about the history of the 501st and all the charitable work the organization does. Once the assembly is over, the 501st would line up shoulder to shoulder in two rows with an isle between. Lord Vader would then dismiss everyone back to class and students would exit the gym walking down the isle the 501st had created.
Changing area still to be determined. Leave weapons in totes as this is a school area.
501st ONLY!!!

Pride 2024 is coming up! We will be operating as we have done in the past. As such. Here are some guidelines that have we need to adhere to:
-NO PROMITIONAL ITEMS, HAND OUTS, OR CANDY. We will not be tossing out or giving items out to the crow.
-NO RESTRICTED ITEMS. This will include our prop weapons. Sorry folks.
-SIGNS, BANNERS, & COMMUNICATION. We will need a sign or banner that tells people who we are. Our flags should work just fine. Number markers will also need to be carried by someone near the beginning of our entry.
-HANDRAILS, VEHICLES, AND TRAILERS. We will most likely be using trailers again, so we just need to make sure that they have handrails for our participants if they ride. REMEMBER: ONCE YOU ARE ON A TRAILER, YOU MUST STAY ON FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE PARADE. IF THERE IS AN EMERGENCY, WE WILL GET ONE OF OUR CROWD CONTROL PERSONELL TO ASSIST. VICE VERSA FOR WALKERS. Walkers must also be either in front or behind our vehicles. NO WALKING ON THE SIDES.
We will be attending a parade and safety meeting for more information regarding the parade. That will be held on May 25th at 10:00 AM.
Also. 10:00 AM is the KICKOFF time, not arrival. Please arrive at least 30 mins-1 hour beforehand so that you are prepared to start marching. Please stay hydrated as we will be in summer. Once we have more information regarding where we will be staging, I will update this page with that info.
As the famed Roger Elizabeth DeBris and his production team once stated: If at the end you want them to cheer, KEEP IT GAY, KEEP IT GAY, KEEP IT GAY!!
