March 4th, 2009 | Published in Second Life News
The Relay Raiders are proud to announce the dates for Second Life’s 3rd Annual “Clothing Fair.” Events are set to launch on Monday, March 16 at 10:00 am SLT, and run 24/7 through Sunday, March 22, 2009 when the doors close at 9:00 pm SLT. All proceeds are to benefit the American Cancer Society’s Relay For Life campaign.
Nevar Lobo, one of the fair’s originators and co-Captain of the Relay Raiders, is at the helm of this year’s event and he’ll be joined by his wife Amethyst, Synergy, Moxie and team captain Haroldthe. The event started to take shape back in October of 2008. “Having been here from its inception, watching this year’s event fall into place has been outstanding,” says Nevar. “The Raiders have mixed it up this year, offering Second Life’s residents a new experience.”
This year’s event will span 9 sims and feature over 170 of Second Life’s shining stars. “Being able to meet and collaborate with designers from around the world has been an awesome experience for us,” Amethyst interjects. “We’re looking forward to providing an even better, non-stop experience.”
When asked if she would like to share any of the details, Synergy replied, “We will be offering a Silent Dress Auction featuring original interpretations of the designs seen grid-wide representing the 7 Deadly Sins.” Bidding will start when the fair begins on Monday, March 16, 2009 at 10:00 am SLT and will close at 6:00 pm SLT on Sunday, March 22, 2009. Winners will be announced at 8:00 pm SLT on the 22nd to bid the fair adieu. She also shared that she is hoping both she and Amethyst will be offered the opportunity to model the designs throughout the fair. They are outstanding!
