Bring it on 2017!

Hey Ponies, firstly, I’d like to apologize for dropping the ball when the RFL 2016 fundraising season came to an end. I was away from SL when the season officially ended and was not able to record our team’s end of season totals before the Donation Kiosks auto deleted themselves in-world! And at that time, the RFLofSL website also reset their totals. >_<

From what I remember, I know for sure our team generated just above $L20,000… not anywhere near our goal of $L126,000, but it was our first year running and I am proud of all our members for the efforts you all put into getting the word out!

As soon as I have any news regarding the 2017 fundraising season, you’ll hear from me again! ♥

Cheers,
Ember (isolte.ember)
Team Captain, Ponies For Life

Luminaria - REMEMBER Ceremony - Saturday, 9pm SLT (Pacific)

Image
The REMEMBER Ceremony will be held at 9pm SLT on Saturday, June 7, 2025.  It is a very moving time at the Relay. During this hour-long ceremony, the track falls into darkness and silence, with everyone on all of the Relay regions asked to not chat in open text or local open voice chat, for all activities and events to cease, and for all attendees to walk the track in silence or to stand in quiet respect alongside the track. Music will play and names of those we remember will be read.  The Remember Ceremony - also known as the Ceremony of Hope or Luminaria Ceremony - is a reminder of why we Relay. It is a time to remember those we have lost to Cancer.  It is a time to pay tribute to men, women, and children around the world whose lives have been affected by this disease.  It is a time for each of us to reflect on how this disease has touched us personally.  It is a time for us to look inside ourselves with quiet reflection and find hope.  Because no matter w...

Campsite Achievements & VOTE!

VOTE ON THE 2026 RELAY FOR LIFE OF SECOND LIFE THEME You can vote by identifying your first and your second favorite from the 4 choices. https://forms.gle/uU641matdzPAFYrE6   Congratulations team! We earned both Relay campsite awards this year. The first award is the Cancer Education award given to teams who display important information from Cancer.org all throughout their build. It is important to share this vital information to help encourage everyone to get screened for the most common types of cancer, and to share resources where caregivers and diagnosed friends or family can learn who to call and where to get help for treatment, lodging, and general support. The second award is the Thematic Campsite award given to teams whose build fits the yearly theme and this year's was "Magic of Hope." Big thank you to Baiku (ishizko), Tai (taialia), and team co-captain Nuku Xia for helping out with the build this year! ...
