Our 2012 Relay season is now
history.
Once again our team excelled in our events and donations we
brought in. We did not meet our goal of 1 million lindens however we shattered our goal with online
donations this year! Our total we raised is at 775,000. lindens! Our online donations totaled $875.00 or 218,750 lindens! Amazing!
Relay for Life of Second Life generated
$346,334! All from nickels and dimes.
I was so proud this year at the
participation level of our team. Several of you took upon yourself to
hold events all over the grid. From our jail and bail to the little car
races your participation made our events stand out among the relaying
community. What fun we had!
Red Laurent and Beau Buccaneer held
some great events at their club. They also brought some new teammates for
us! Jenny Snakeankle Dj'd at several clubs on behalf of her mother. Fiz Underwood,
Mikael Foxtrot, Portia Lytton, Arioch Snowpaw, Tee Auster, Dianna Wycliffe all
gave of their time to DJ or Host at all team events.
Our challenges at *The
Club* were awesome this year. Thank you to the Club Staff and team members who
were willing to look stupid for a great cause. Thank you to all of you who took
part in planning, building and hosting of our events! That is exactly
what makes our team great!
Our actual Relay was amazing this
year. I could not of pictured a better campsite than Times Square!
Thank you Dani for the great idea and TS for coming up with the sign idea to
honor those we have lost. Thank you to Tee for the cancer time line research.
Thank you to Arioch for your scripting abilities!! We couldn't of done it
without you.Thank you to To Portia for putting together the hunt. Last but not
least a special thank you to Julia Zhangsun! The time you put into each storefront
and signs was appreciated. We are so happy you joined our team!
Our campsite
came in 2nd place for Best Themed campsite and 1st place in Cancer Education.
WOOT It was a memorable weekend for sure!!!
I want to thank our team’s co
captains. Dianna Wycliffe and TS Darrow for being awesome, being at every event
and for putting up with me. To Tee for your talent in taking on the
Harmony of Hope web sight.
Finally, I'd like to close with Fiz Underwood’s
story. For the last few years Fiz would support Relay with a donation but
did not really take part in our team events. Last year at Relay he heard, saw and felt the power of
Relay. At the beginning of his year his words were " I FINALLY GET
IT." Take one minute to sit back and smile. You GET IT!
Because of you we are closer to
a cure for cancer! Because of you we will see a cure in our
lifetime! Those you relay for are smiling because of you!
Thank you for all you did!
UNTIL THERE IS A CURE ~ WE RELAY
