It’s that time of year again… the Relay for Life Kiosks are up, events are starting to be advertised and the teams are plotting and planning for the big Walk in July.
This is my second year participating in RFL. Last year the Crown had a team of it’s own. We started way late into the process and I had NO clue what I was doing. Between Prad and I though we got stuff built(Ok he built, I watched and ran around getting stuff to be raffled off) and got people from the Crown involved. We didn’t do too badly all things considered. We raised money for a good cause, that’s what matters.
I don’t know too many people who haven’t been touched by Cancer. I know my family has. It’s an awful disease but we keep raising money and we keep fighting for a cure.
This year Dazy decided to get a team together in Midian. Midian as a city has never participated before, at least not that I’m aware of. Well, she got it together and created a team that I think represents all the factions in Midian. At the end of the day, Midian is RP and IC drama should stay separate from OOC(I say should but that is another post). Well we had our first event on the sim a week or two ago, and wow it was a success. We raised over $100,000 lindens. Not sure what that is in dollars but it’s a decent effort for only a few hours of time. We crashed the sim, not hard to do in Midian and had a lot of really good, fun roleplay as well. The best part, was seeing all the "citizens" of Midian getting in on it. No one but the sim admins and team/participants knew about this and everyone got into it. It was loads of fun!
There are more events planned, I’m not going to say what or when, cause that wouldn’t be fare. Just hang around Midian, you’ll find out.
There is a store on Angel Square selling RFL items made by members of the team. Pretty cool stuff too so come down and take a look. There’s a kiosk to donate too as well if your so inclined.
The team had a meeting last night. We’ve raised a lot of money for a first year team. Dazy is doing an amazing job! Stay tuned for updates here and hopefully look forward to a Catwalker blog coming soon.
