Jedi Academy at the YMCA?

[JM Saber-Slinger]

I just saw this: www.ymcasv.org/pdfs/2011_SV_SummerGuide_Web.pdf

On page 10, I found the following entry:

Jedi Academy
Ages: 6-11
Dates: August 1-5
Location: Allen at Steinbeck School
Fee: $280
Feel the force flow within you, as your Jedi training begins. Hone
your lightsaber skills, as you and other Padawans learn techniques
and moves from a Jedi Master. Then, put your training to the
ultimate test, as you do battle against the dark side. May the Force
be with you.

Does anyone know if this is LucasFilm Limited approved or affiliated?

I thought I read somewhere that LucasFilm Limited does not allow people to use the terms "Jedi Academy" or to teach kids how to wield a lightsaber?

It is not just that...but they are charging for it as well......however, maybe they got approval from LFL to do this...not likely, but possible.

[Jedimom/Cor-Al Gelkar]

Oooo.... not good. I doubt highly that permission was sought. And as Bourwi said, they are charging a fee...

[Jan-Qui Coran]

I wonder who had the idea to put it in the camp?

[Nova Darklighter]

Pretty pricey.

It's in San Jose so if they didn't get permission, it's close enough to the main Lucas Film campus that they may get noticed. I hope for their sake they got permission.
