Martino Junior High School's SW Museum In IL

Posted By Mike on December 27, 2011

Triblocal.com reports that the Martino Junior High School, in New Lonox Illinios, will be hosting a Star Wars Museum this coming Friday and Saturday to benefit Toys for Tots. This will be the second year that the school has hosted the Toys for Tots benefit following last year's successful fund raising of $2,500. Besides a wide display of props, memorabilia and collectibles, guests can expect a Jedi Training School for the younglings, coloring centers, Star Wars-themed concessions and more.

UPDATE: TFN reader John was nice enough to send over a post-event report, with some images, from Martino Junior High School's second annual Toys for Tots Star Wars Museum:

"My name is John Wettergren and I teach at Martino Junior High School in New Lenox, Illinois. I just wanted to provide an update on the Star Wars Episode II Toys for Tots Museum that was sponsored by our student council last weekend. Once again, the two day fundraiser was a huge success. We took in over $2000 in monetary donations, along with two large refrigerator boxes filled with toys for all the little Twi'lek girls and Wookie boys! We want to thank everyone for participating in this worthy cause, including members of the Chicago-land 501st Legion, who stopped by to take pictures (and color pictures) with Star Wars fans of all ages! Have a great holiday season and May the Force be with You!"

Thanks John!
