R2 got to mix it up with the Anchorage Symphony backstage at a rehearsal for the upcoming John Williams concert!

Watch out R2!! The percussion section thinks you’re a drum!!

Congratulations to Moose the Mouse at its recent showing at the Alaska Comiccon!

Congratulations to Naila Browne on your successful transport from the central core to the outer rim and have found yourself in the remote Hoth star system located on the fringe of the Ivax Nebula in the Anoat sector of the Greater Javin, along the Ison Trade Corridor at the edge of the Outer Rim Territories on the planet known as Hoth. You and your BB-8 have already made a fantastic showing at two hospital events!! We look forward to seeing what the newest droid builder to Alaska will do next!!

Tuesday R2 got to visit Springhill Elementary School and Mrs. Hanley’s class. They made this thank you card!! 💕❤️💕

The miracle of making a young man’s dreams come true and making a friend for life. Priceless.

Weekley MAW SendOff John Weekley, a young man battling Rasmussen's encephalitis (RE), was granted a wish to Walt Disney World by Make-A-Wish Alaska & Washington with a send off...

Merry Christmas everyone!! May your batteries be charged, your motivators activated, and your spirit holo projectors bright!! From our droid family to yours!

R2D2 hung out with the 501st Alaskan Garrison - Aurora Borealis, Rebel Legion Denali Outpost, and The Galactic Academy Moraband School of Alaska at the Wasilla Fourth of July Parade. He may have been at the back of the float but that paid off as patrons were delighted to see him waving and beeping/whistling hello just when they thought it was time to look at the firetrucks. Got pictures? We and the City of Wasilla - The Administration would love to see them!

Last week we had an amazing rare opportunity with the Rebel Legion Denali Outpost and the 501st Alaskan Garrison - Aurora Borealis through Providence Alaska Hospice to visit with an 8 year old days before his 9th birthday. It was an emotional event of trying to bring joy and excitement and fun at a very difficult and somber time. We are so thankful to Providence Alaska Hospice allowing us this opportunity to help. We have learned that this young man became one with the force last night, 3 days from his birthday.
