Kierra's Courage "Ghostbusters" Benefit Screening 11/13/2010
On Saturday, November 13th, 2010, the Arizona Ghostbusters teamed with Celestial Nights
Entertainment and Fear Farm to host a screening of "Ghostbusters" 1 & 2 to benefit Kierra's Courage. Kierra's
Courage is set-up to help the little girl's family purchase a handicap van. The Sony Pictures 30ft Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man
balloon was set up as well as our Ecto and booth, several vendors, and a 50ft screen. This is the 4th time we've gotten to
use Mr. Puft. Donations were taken for entry and our raffles and a portion of the vendor profits were donated as well. Stay-Puft
was right at home next to the creepy haunted house fronts at Fear Farm. It was an awesome and fun night and we would like
to thank everyone that attended. $725 was collected for Kierra.

MS Walk 11/6/2010
On Saturday November 6th, 2010, the Phoenix branch participated in their
4th local MS Walk on the Wild Side. The MS Walk is 5 miles going through our local Zoo, Botanical Gardens, and surrouding
park. It is the longest walk we do each year. We raised $300 for this walk. At the Walk itself we set up the Ecto-AZ near
the starting line and led the walk with the local 501st Dune Sea Stormtrooper Garrison. As always it was a blast. We had the
great honor of our logo being on the back of the official walk t-shirts again this year.Click on photo for full gallery

Downtown Phoenix Zombie Walk 10/29/2010
On Friday, October 29, 2010, the Arizona Ghostbusters teamed up with the Downtown Phoenix
Ambassadors 2nd annual Zombie Walk. The walk was months of preparation and promotion. Last year the walk had about 300 walkers
and we wanted to get way more than that this year. The walk was combined with the downtown Halloween Festival. We also made
the walk a food drive for St.Mary's Food Bank. We were able to get a full police escort for the Ecto and walk which allowed
us to run full lights and sirens on the Ecto and allow the zombies to have the entire street to themselves. The walk was a
full mile through downtown heading through and outdoor mall and pass a Suns vs. Lakers Basketball Game. We had 1500 zombies
show up and participate which is a new record for Arizona. It was an amazing and awesome night. Busters, zombies, and passers-by
all had a great time and we collected a ton of food. We can't wait till next years walk.Click on photo for full gallery
