SL Renaissance Festival Concludes, I Pink I Can Continues

 

 

This weekend was the conclusion of the Renaissance Festival in Second Life. Among the events in the sims south of American Cancer Society was at 1PM Saturday when Jaycatt and Frogg performed at the Minstrel Stage. At the event, Jaycatt had a limited edition pet dragon on his shoulder, which people could get for a small donation. 

Elsewhere at the Ren Fest, there were tournaments. I would witness a round of jousting. It was close, ending 5 to 4. 

And of course there was the shopping, at numerous stores. 

While the Ren Fest may be ending, "I Pink I Can" is still going on, in the sims north of American Cancer Society. On Sunday at 1PM was a stage play, "A Child’s Journey Through Cancer: The Musical." It would show "the story of a child’s journey through cancer told in music and dance. It takes us through the fear, joy and hope experienced in a cancer journey." It was done and directed by Patty Flow of "Roos With A Dream," with some of her teammates taking part, as well as other Relayers.

 

Both the Ren Fest and I Pink I Can raise money for Making Strides Against Breast Cancer. 

More on I Pink I Can later. The event goes on to Sunday October 20.

Scenes From The Renaissance Festival

The Renaissance Festival, or Ren-Fest continues. Besides the shopping, there's been a number of events. I dropped by a discussion of roleplaying at one point. 

There's also been music events, both DJs and live performers. Among them was tiny singer Songbird Sorbet.

Tomorrow, Thursday at 1 PM, is one of the more notable happenings of the festival, the "Joust a Mole or Linden" event. The donation needed to take part is 1000 Linden dollars.

The festival raises funds for Making Strides Against Breast Cancer.

SL Renaissance Festival Opens

 

 

The Second Life Renaissance Festival is underway. The event, also known as the Ren Fest, started yesterday, September 24. There are numerous things to do there, such as shopping (notably for Medieval and Fantasy clothes, furnishings and gear), attending live and DJ music events, classes, contests, auctions, and competitions and other contests.

Dropping by the landmark area, there was a kiosk display with several outfits, from prices from 250 to 75L There were also some silent auctions done in cooperation with Linden Lab, such as an otherwise free year of Premium Plus or name change. There was in addition a kiosk for a "mega raffle" offering 45,000 Lindens worth of gift cards. I also witnessed a ceremony involving numerous people on horseback. 

 

One of the more notable events, "Joust a Mole or Linden," takes place on Thursday September 29 at 1PM SL time. 

 

The Ren Fest raises money in support of Making Strides, which raises money for the Relay for Life for breast cancer support and research.
