More Than Meets the Eye

Wow! Last week literally hundreds showed up at my tiny shop to look for the red stick with some free stuff that I have hidden in there. I have talked to so many of you and it was so nice to hear how much fun it has been, and how people have discovered content creators that so far they didn’t know at all, or never thought made things that they would like.

Anyways, it’s the 20th today, and that means that this will be the last day that you can hunt for the sticks gridwide and collect litterally tons of free stuff for your entertainment.

I would like to thank Laynie Link for the incredible amount of work that she has put into this and I hope her days as a volunteer at the RL festival in Baton Rouge have been as much fun as the whole experience in-world.

With all the attention RFL is getting (and I’m very glad it does!), you’d almost forget that within our community there are more initiatives to support and aid residents who have serious health issues in RL. Yesterday friend and photographer Rob Danton pointed out the Dreams Community Fair, which runs til April 25. It’s a fun site, with rides, info booths, some pretty nifty builds and some really fun freebies.

This is from their own introductory note card:

“For the third year in a row, we are inviting you to be a part of our effort to introduce the people of SL to some of the lesser known areas of Second Life, particularly in the areas of health support, education and the Arts.

The Dream Travelers of Dreams are the activity base and support group for a community of stroke survivors in SL as well as people who are interested in Asperger Syndrome and Autism.

WHAT IS INVOLVED?* We will have booths and tents available to groups to show off their organizations through their products, information sheets, landmark givers, etc.. * Each group is encouraged to schedule at least one activity during the fair to be held on the Dreams Fair grounds. These activities can take the form of:
- Classes
- Discussions
- Meetings or Group Activities
- Group Recreational Activities such as dances and competitions.
- Story-telling, poetry readings, art demonstrations, ballet, live performances, concerts, etc.

We have three art barns to hold various forms of art. This is a Fair to show the diverse range of groups available in SL not products. However, we do encourage the groups to give our free items to the general public.
If you feel that a group you belong to should be involved in the fair then please let us know!! everyone is welcome in the community project!

We would love if you would display the sign included in this info folder on your property this would help us immensely in getting the word out about the fair!
Thank you very much.We will look forward to seeing you at the Fair!

Go take a look, you might be surprised!

Hey people… there is a red stick hidden in my shop throughout this week with some new stuff. Come and get it. Go the the Red Stick International Animation Festival HQ to pick up your list with participants and gear up for some serious hunting. It’s huge… over 50, shops grid wide, are hiding red stick(s) in their shop with free things. The hunt was supposed to last this weekend only, but since it became so big, and you do have Real Lives too… it will be on all week long.

So while you’re there.. try some of the new poses that I’ve uploaded. The grid has not been exactly stable… so photos will follow through the weekend, but there are some new poses that I am pretty proud of, including some crouches that I made upon request of my friend Carl Crabe that were used in a group photo for the skin fair closing show. As usual, singles are on sale for L$ 65, and the set for L$ 500 (buy it from the “new”prim above the vendor)
