Cynthia Farshore Honored With Community Trophy

 *

Saturday July 30 was the "Christmas in July" party at Club Cutlass, the main club of the Sunweaver community. But there was one thing not on the official schedule that happened. Around halftime, community leader team Mariner, whom is also the team captain of the Relay for Life's Sunbeamer team, interrupted things.

 

"Hello Everybooty and welcome to this extra special event, at our regular SATURDAY Dance. I planned this special event to  recognize a member of the Sunbeamer Team. We made Emerald again this year, due the efforts and work this person contributed all through the Relay for Life!"

 

Shockwave Yareach, whom was in the know what was happening, called out, "Cynthia, to the front please?"

 

Rita continued,  "This individual we all know and love, although they have been known to 'scream' a lot. Without their efforts and hard work, we would not be as a successful RFL Team as the Sunbeamers are! So without further delay, Cynthia Farshore, please step forward and put yourself before the rest of us."

 

Cynthia did so, and Rita went on, "Yes, Cynthia Farshore, is the very special  goat, we are here to honor. Her efforts with the airshows,  medival fun faire, BID MES, the popular Moon dances and primary builder, on this year's Sunbeamer RFL camp make her most worthy of this recognition. It is therefore with great honor, I wish to present you Cynthia, with our first ever 2022 Best Builder Trophy.  You have earned it!"

Cynthia's response was, "You know I really wasn't alone in all that." Shockwave smiled and responded, "Posh - you kicked ass and you know it." Rita went, ""Yeah, but you are the one we are handing the trophy to."

Congratulations Cynthia

Reader Submitted: VRMC Rabbit Race Trophy

Cartoon of the Day

Taken at the Giant Snail Race at Raglan Shire. Although redshirts didn't have such a high death rate in later series, the joke from the original Star Trek series persisted. So one would think survival in itself was the real trophy.

The Sunbeamers' Gold Trophy

It was June 27 when Relay for Life team Sunbeamer, the team of the Sunweaver/Angels community for the Relay for Life in Second Life, made Gold level. It was yesterday July 13 in which the team was presented with it's gold trophy.

The trophy is up on display at the Sunbeamer camp at RFL Strength.

Avi Choice Awards Trophy

The Avi Choice Awards show was last weekend. Although nominated, the Newser didn't win, the award for "Favorite Newspaper or Magazine" going to a fashion one. Still, they did send us a silver trophy for making it to the nominations.

Press Release: RFL - Changes to Most Lapped Walked Awards Structure

After reviewing last year's volunteer feedback, the following changes have been implemented to ensure that everyone has a fun and quality experience on the relay track. These changes affect the Most Walked Laps Awards structure and are as follows:

1. Instead of awarding trophies to the persons who had accumulated the most laps, the acknowledgement will be awarded in three tiers, based on the laps completed.

2. The three tiers are as follows:
1 complete lap to 9 complete laps - 3rd Level Recognition
10 complete laps to 19 complete laps - 2nd Level Recognition
20 complete laps to 30 complete laps - 1st Level Recognition
31 laps or more disqualified from earning award recognition

3. We encourage speed boosters be saved for use AFTER the Event Day has ended.  We invite those, who like to use our track as an opportunity to get out those speed enhancing scripts, to enjoy the track from Sunday night (the 20th)  after 8pm SLT until the track is dismantled later in the week.  In fact, if YOU would like to organize the GREAT RELAY RACE for any day after the close of Event Day, let us know by IMing anyone on your committee!

Thank you for your feedback and cooperation, as we strive to make our Relay fun and enjoyable for all!

Sincerely,
The 2014 Relay For Life of Second Life Committee
