Sunbeamers Reach One Million Linden Mark After Raising 100,000L At Relaystock

 

 This weekend, the Relaystock took place, with various teams getting campsites and a musician, sometimes with dancers, on stage. At 3PM Saturday April 5th, it was the turn of Team Sunbeamers. With DJ Cynthia spinning a set of classic rock tunes, a number of other 'beamers got on stage with her and the team danced away on stage, often cracking jokes and puns, "I get by with a little hemp from my friends..."
 
 
The results were a smashing success for the "wackiest team in Second Life," raising a hundred thousand Lindens for the time they were on stage, a new record. Two Sunnies then lived up pledges they made if this was done, Shockwave, the team's wolf, donning a grandmother's nightgown, "HOW do I get talked into doing this?" And Brian became a brightly pink fennec in a tutu, "Okay Brian!!! Strip to the tutu!"


For the team, another milestone was reached. They'd achieved Emerald status fundraising, the one million Linden dollar mark. This marks the fourth year in a row they've done so, and the earliest they've done so ever. Currently, the Sunbeamers are sixth out of 177 teams.

While the Relaystock is over, the camps are still up for people to see, and don't forget the "Bid the Lindens Bald" event later this week.

RFL Team Sunbeamers Have Over 100,000 Lindens For Next Season

 *


The next Relay season in Second Life is still months away. But some teams have been raising money for the season ahead. Among them is the Sunbeamer team, of whom team captain Rita Mariner set up a tip jar onto the deck of Club Cutlass for anyone wanting to chip in for next year's team total. A few days ago, the total passed 100,000 Linden dollars. And the total keeps going up.

How much will be raised by the start of the season in February 2022? We'll have to wait to find out.

RFL Team Sunbeamers Reaches 100,000 Lindens Raised, Launces "Bid Me Chipmunk"


Over the weekend, the Relay for Life's  Team Sunbeamers reached a milestone. The total amount ot Lindens raised for this year passed the 100,000 Linden dollar mark.

Beamers:  We hit 100K Lindens on the KIOSK, just 25K Lindens to go for GOLD!  We can do this! 

Team captain Rita Mariner, having just finished her "bubblegum crisis" following her "Bid Me What?" in which she had to be pink for a week, has volunteered for another Bid Me, though a less drastic one: "Bid Me Chipmunk."

I have also started another BID ME.  I will go CHIPMUNK for a week for each 3000L reached.

Rita is occasionally called "Captain Chipmunk" when gaming.

As with other "Bid Me" events by Team Sunbeamers, there are two kiosks. One is for those who want the volunteer to stay as is, and another for the change. To donate, head to Club Cutlass at Sunweaver Bay (114/117/757).

Besides the "Bid Me," there are two upcoming events for Team Sunbeamers. One is the Farshore Field Air Show this upcoming Saturday April 13. Another is a party at the Happy Vixen Beach club on Saturday April 20.

With less than 25,000 Lindens left until the Gold fundraising level, already people are talking about Platinum. That rank is achieved at 250,000 Linden dollars raised. Last year, the team pulled out all the stops and made it to the never before achieved Emerald level. Getting there this year would take one million Linden dollars.

Go Sunbeamers! Go Relay!

Sunbeamers Pass 100,000 Lindens



The Relay for Life team representing the neighbors of the SL Newser has passed another milestone. Yesterday, they passed the 100,000 Linden dollar mark, and are currently at 102,000 Lindens raised.

An impressive number, but it's still about 78,000 short to get to Silver level. A few teams have become extremely successful, Team Shadow recently joining Two Moon Paradise Dreamers and the Relay Rockers at Platinum level. One team made Jade level: Unmasking a Cure.

There will be more about the Sunbeamer Bid Me events and the Lindens' Bid Me Bald soon.

Go Relay!
