At either contest upon a donation to the American Cancer Society kiosk you then acquire a free bicycle powered blimp provided for each entry. You can not use one of your own in the contest unless it is the same thing that is being given. This makes for an even playing field. Also we require that only participants fly the course as non-players will cause the timers to be thrown off. The course runs through the sky were you must pass through rings spaced at intervals that vary in height and direction. Missing a ring causes a disqualified time. You may run the course as many times as you like hopefully bettering your time. Contest runs through the air show hours and the prize of a Aerial Outfitters Sky Skiff Airship will be sent to the winner at the air shows end at 5PM.

The bumper car contest is no ordinary bumper car setup, remember it's the Sunbeamers who are not noted as being a very sane group. The contestants may experience changing obstacles, exploding cars, and maybe even...cannon fire? Oh My. Yes the spectators are armed and willing. But wait there’s mooore, also passengers can ride along, and try to shoot the other cars! Chaos!! The contest will be in 5 minute runs with trophies awarded at the end of each. You can enter as many contest as you like.

Sunbeamers and Roos Make Over 100K Each At The Relaystock, Relay Rockers Pass One Million

 

 

The Relayers had a lot of fun at the Relaystock Woodstock tribute. There were numerous teams taking part, as well as many live musicians and DJs. On Satutday night, it was the turn of two certain teams. At 6PM, DJ Cynthia of Team Subneamers would get on stage, dancing with a number of teammates to some classic rock tunes. At 7:30 PM, DJ Kayla and some from Roos With A Dream went on stage.

The results for both teams was a resounding success. The Sunbeamers raised over 111,000 Lindens that night, getting them almost to 900,000 L in total. Roos With A Dream did even better, netting 126,000 L for their set at the Relaystock stage. They were pushed to just shy of two-thirds of a million Lindens. 

Then there was the host team, the Relay Rockers, of who had their team captain, Trader Whiplash, DJing on stage for the last set at 5PM on Sunday. By the very end, their team total had passed the one million Linden mark, getting the team into Emerald ranked fundraising, seventh place among the list of Relay teams.

We'll have more on the Relaystock soon.

Go Sunbeamers! Go Roos! Go Relay!

Sunbeamer and Roos Air Show

 

 

 Saturday May 29 was one of the Relay for Life's Sunbeamer team's main annual events: the Sunbeamer Air Show at Farshore Field in Sunlight Bay. For the past few years, it's been known as the Sunbeamer and Roos Air Show, due to "Roos With a Dream" taking part. The event was from 9AM to 5PM.

 

 

 There were planes flying, and numerous warplanes on display at the airport. There was also bicycle blimp racing, the course set up by Shockwave Yareach and Cynthia Farshore. 

There were also balloon tours of the area, courtesy of Skylark"Snowbuns" Lefavre. Other attractions included carnival games and rides, shooting at the dunk tank with a German 88, bumper cars, and more.

 

 

 The high point was at 3PM when DJ Kalaya and a number of the 'Roos got on stage, dancing away, with numerous Sunbeamers and others in the audience dancing away, and sending donations into the kiosk. The two teams together would raise more than 60,000 Linden dollars that day, the totals announce by Cynthia.

 

Sunbeamer Airshow went well, We and the Roos would like to thank all that came and donated. We have totals of: Sunbeamers L$38,800 ; Roos L$28,050 for a two team effort of L$66, 850! Woot!

As of now, Team Sunbeamers has raised almost 655,000 Linden dollars, closing in on the next fundraising level. Roos With A Dream have raised just shy of 423,000. But both teams are far from finished. There are the Bid Me Events. There are the multi-team events like the Moon Dances every week and the Relaystock later this month. And of course in June there's the Relay Weekend when the teams walk around the track.

Go Sunbeamers! Go Roos! Go Relay!

Reader Submitted: Relay Team Roos With A Dream Hit A Season Milestone

 

On 13 March the Relay For Life of Second Life relay team Roos With A Dream during their “Monday With The Roos” event had a high attendance of 30 people with 15 teams represented by kiosk set out! The theme this night was Irish as Saint Patrick’s Day is coming Friday. Many came to hear music from the World Famous DJ Kayla and the Roos but were instead entertained by a guest DJ Aragain Easterwood who in real life is a violinist with the Dublin Symphony Orchestra. They couldn’t get more Irish that night. Aragain had a wonderful and large crowd to play to and her music lead to the collecting of L$23,000 in donations. 

 

Go Relay!
