Last weekend we once again attended the Scandinavian
Sci-Fi, Game and Film Convention in Stockholm. As well as our usual Nordic
Garrison members we were joined by friends from the Belgian and UK
Garrisons. We collected over 10,000SEK for UNICEF and would like to thank
everyone for their support.
Just a few of our pictures can be found
here.

As we announced a few weeks ago, we will be launching a
prize competition at
SSGFC in Stockholm. We are now pleased to announce our star prize. Click here for details.
Make sure you drop by our stand for your chance to win and, at the same
time, make a donation to UNICEF. Don't forget that you can also have your photo taken with Darth Vader, Darth
Maul and many other representatives of the Galactic Empire and make an even
larger contribution to our work.
Just one week to go and we are going all out to make sure this is our best
event ever. We hope to see you all there.

The Nordic Garrison are pleased to announce the launch of a new section of
our website. During the last 18 months the garrison has grown at a fantastic
rate and we have noticed that almost everyone who is interested in joining
us asks the same questions, “Where can I get this part?” or “Is this helmet
any good?” In order to try and help prospective members we have now created
a Costuming section on this site. There you will find a guide to all the
costumes our troopers own as well as the name of the one person who knows
most about it and can help you find what you are looking for.
We hope that it is a great help to both prospective members and to current
members who want to create a new costume.
To visit the Costuming section, simply click the Costuming option in the
menu above or click here.
