As we prepare for the big day, we want to give thanks to each of you for the last four months of hard work and for making the dream that is the Relay For Life of Second Life come alive.

Many thanks to Linden Lab for their support and commitment to the Relay For Life of Second Life, and to the American Cancer Society (ACS) and our ACS Staff Partner, Stingray9798 Raymaker, for without their support, our successes would not be possible.

We applaud the efforts of our leadership and thank MamaP Beerbaum for inspiring and guiding this monumental effort, and to Dwen Dooley for his Website wizardry and commitment to excellence, to Nikki Mathieson and her team for making the Relay come to life, and to the Committee Chairs and Co-Chairs for their dedication, hard work and profound good humor, to our Sponsors for believing in and supporting the Relay, to our Telethon media partners, to Trader1 Whiplash and T1Radio and to the designers of the beautiful, thought-provoking and imaginative campsites as well as the Team Captains, the Teams and the volunteers who embody the heart and soul of the Relay For Life of Second Life.

Stingray9798 Raymaker praised the Relay For Life of Second Life and said, "I am just as excited for this year's Relay For Life of Second Life as I ever have been. Over the last few weeks, the momentum has been building to what will be an amazing crescendo and finale to an amazing fundraising season."

He added, "I have been bragging about you all to my fellow American Cancer Society colleagues for the last several weeks, and will continue to sing your praises as long as people will listen to me! Now - let's go have a Relay!!"
