Corporate Events• From the LPRO and Council: Just an update on the larger corporate

events that we've been doing for the likes of Bloomingdales, Stride Rite, Verizon, Build-A-Bear, DK, etc. It's clear that many of our volunteer members are not happy with the way these events have been organized and executed

• We've heard you and we have been talking to Mary Franklin and Steve Sansweet at LFL who assure us that a lot of the problems are due to LFL's licensing team making plans or approving corporate events without consulting the fan relations team (Steve/Mary) or the 501st. While we always reserve the right to refuse any event, we typically try to please the fans, LFL and the general public because we're awesome that way. However, our good will has its limits.

• As of the end of last week, Mary has asked LFL's licensing team to put a hold on future corporate events until we can figure out a better process.
