A benefit for the American Cancer Society! We are pleased to announce that flights to Sunbeamer Base on the moon will resume tonight Feb. 20, 2025. Dances will be again at the usual times of 6 PM to 8PM SLT.

Sunweaver Space (96,104,48)

 

The Moon Dances have become something of a Sunbeamer tradition. Taking place in Sunweaver Space every week during Relay season, Thursdays from 6 to 8 PM. Normally DJ Cynthia plays the music. It is a multi-team event, sometimes called BYOK - Bring your own kiosk. Actually, it's more "request your own kiosk," as one of the team will rezz one on request for someone representing another Relay team. The kiosk in question remains up as long as at least one of the team is present. 

And quite a number showed up. Several were Sunbeamers. There were also a number from "Roos With A Dream," another fun-loving team the 'beamers often team up with in events. A number of other teams had at least one member, Icer of Team Dragon Heart making a big impression. There were also some from new teams present. 

And there were the jokes. When Team ACTS was mentioned, it was brought up how their fundraising would zip by other teams, and Cynthia started playing the "Road Runner" song. One of the 'Roos then switched to a Wile E. Coyote avie. 

Then there was Shockwave in his astronaut outfit. There was the girl who rezzed some balloons and floated when "My Beautiful Balloon" was played. There was when someone did a waffle rezzer and filled the air with more waffles than a Raglan Shire anniversary. And more that there's not enough time to mention. 

At the end came the closing song, "I Run For Life," and fireworks lit the sky, with the Relayers praising one another. It was a great conclusion to the first Moon Dance of the 2025 season.

Team Sunbeamers will be holding an "Undersea Dance" this Friday, May 15. The event will be at 6PM SL time (Cutlass, the team's usual location for Friday dances, will not have an event that particular day).

To get there, head to Sunweaver Bay (200/107/25), go down the transport tube, and follow the pirate bunny logo to get to the club area.

The event is BYOK, so someone can have a kiosk rezzed and set for their team for a few extra Lindens for them.

DJ Snowbuns will be playing the music. Instead of accepting tips, she asks donations be made to the Sunbeamers and other teams present. There will be a prize for best in theme, either swimwear or an underwater avatar.

Relay "Bring Your Own Kiosk" Event

The "Monday With The Roos" event by Relay for Life's team "Roos With a Dream" on April 20 at an Australian-style pub proved interesting. They made it a "BYOK" or "Bring Your Own Kiosk" event. And so people from other teams came over to place theirs. Even though it was a small sim with a capacity of  25, in which a couple others with Premium accounts hopped in over the limit, a reported ten kiosks for ten teams were there. Bain Finch would say over group chat, "Think the Roos got a record. 10 kiosk BYOK with 17 people here.."

Matt Carlton, representing the Sunbeamers, was there. And thanks to her, the team got an extra few thousand, plus a few pictures from her sent to the Newser. Among them, a picture of some green goo being spewed onto the floor. Matt would wonder if this was "pea soup," and if there'd be a scene from "The Exorcist" soon. Each team there got at least 2000 Lindens, the Roos getting over 10,000 L.
