July 20-23, 2000...ComicCon
Over 25 of us went to what becomes our favorite convention of the year.   The huge dealer room was a showplace for many of the group's costumes, and we took Best Presentation for our skit, "Who Wants to Marry a Millionaire".

May 12, 2000...Star Wars wedding!
50 guests, largely comprised of SWFO members, gathered for the long awaited wedding of founder Janell Ware and costumer Michael Schiffbauer.   They were escorted by a blue honor guard, passed beneath a military arch of lightsabers, and Darth Vader attempted to object to the marriage!  Photos   Slideshow
January 1,2000... San Diego Star Wars: Magic of Myth Exhibit
About 7 of our eclectic group descended upon Museum row in San Diego, loaded down with video tape, cameras, and film, to check out the props and costumes on display.  It was quite a way to ring in the New Year!   Exhibit Photo
September 11-13... Space:1999/Breakaway Convention
About 8 of us showed up on Sunday and met a few of the stars from this classic tv series.   The dance was great!  They did a countdown to "breakaway" at midnight, and recreated part of the set quite convincingly.  Janell's Maya outfit even had the series' stars doing double takes; they thought she was former cast member Catherine Schell!   PHOTO
August 26-29, 1999...NASFIC
I saw probably about 20-25 of our group at some point during this weekend.  The Con Suite was fabulous!  I've never seen bagels with lox, cream cheese, and the works offered!  Some of our members belonging to costuming groups entered the masquerade, and won three awards total!  We're waiting for more photos.   Photo #1: NASFIC winners
August 13-15, 1999...ComicCon
About 15-20 of us met up throughout the weekend and had a blast!  Though we did not enter the masquerade this year, our member Mike Schiffbauer and a couple others could be seen on the trailer for a Battlestar Galactica remake which was pitched to studios in September.  Photo #1    Photo#2
June 19, 1999...Star Wars Fan Day
About 12 of us met up to see the long awaited Digital opening of Star Wars: the Phantom Menace.  Digital technology is AWESOME!

September 23, 1996….Planet Hollywood Dinner
10 of us met up at Planet Hollywood in Beverly Hills, CA to rendezvous with a member who had flown in all the way from New Jersey on other business.  It was a blast, and since there are so many prop and memorabilia collectors in the group, PH's atmosphere was perfect!  There was even a Darth Vader costume on display.
