Llandudno Extravaganza

The Llandudno Victorian Extravaganza might seem like a strange place to find Star Wars characters but you will find them there!

Packed full of Steam Engines and Victorian Musical Organs, Vintage Cars and Costumes, Curiosities & Sideshows the centrepiece of the weekend is the parade throughout town.

Freeze!
It's full of Marching Bands, Victorian Costume walkers, Steam engines and vintage vehicles, Britain’s best Town Criers, stilt walkers, street entertainers and... Star Wars characters!


Is that why they are called" tree huggers"?
A select (and very geographically suited) team of HH members put on a great performance throughout the parade and even managed to find time to enjoy the carnival themselves!

Wheee!

Winter Memorabilia Show at the NEC

November means the Winter Memorabilia show at the NEC and the Hollywood Heroes didn't dissapoint. We had Jabba installed on his new throne surrounded by Gammorean Guards, a slave Leia and Chewie! 
Very little and very large

We were also joined by member of the GK (Galactic Knights) who provided us with a variety of Clonetroopers.


The Wolf Pack
 The aim of the weekend was fundraising and by the end of Sunday we had managed to raise a little over £900 for the Cystic Fibrosis Trust.




Tired...but worth it!

August 2011




As temperatures rose we helped out at more funfairs. The first of these was in Huddersfield where we were joined by newcomer Jonny and his amazing Predator costume.


Next up was Leeds again – this time at Roundhay Park. Where Badger managed to press gang a group of his fellow teachers into donning costumes like Scooby Doo, Spongebob and Bob the Builder. Two great events that helped raised even more money for our charities.
