For Immediate Release: 2023 Out Shop Cancer The 6th annual Out Shop Cancer event supporting Making Strides and the American Cancer Society is almost here. Out Shop Cancer is a main store and marketplace shopping event and a signature Strides Campaign in Second Life in support of the American Cancer Society’s breast cancer programs and research. The 2023 Out Shop Cancer event includes main store and marketplace shopping, a grid-wide hunt, an Out Shop Cancer Pop-up Market, and a special Gala event. Along with the many shopping opportunities, there will be several special raffles during the month, including raffles for eBody Reborn bodies, Belleza bodies, LeLutka heads, skin packs and much more. In addition to the shopping, hunt and raffles, there will be an art walk and photo contest this year. The Easthaven Art Walk will also run Oct. 1 through Oct. 31 and feature the creative work of artists and photographers, with proceeds benefiting Strides. A photo contest with the theme, "Season of Hope" will be held at Easthaven and open to everyone to join in the fun! With more than 70 stores participating ranging from clothes to decor to breedables, there is something for everyone. Sandie Slate, founder of Out Shop Cancer, says “The response from designers this year has been tremendous and the amount of support for the event has exceeded expectations. With the inclusion of the Pop-Up Market and the Gala event, this year’s event is jam-packed with shopping and much more.” Slate continued: "By hosting events throughout the month, there's plenty to see and do -- all while helping to raise funds for a great cause." The Out Shop Cancer event runs from Oct. 1 to Oct. 31. Shoppers will be able to pick up a shopping hud inworld at the Out Shop Cancer office. A list of contributing merchants with a shopping directory and the official bloggers can be found on the Out Shop Cancer website at https://www.outshopcancersecondlife.com/. Information about the Hunt, Pop-Up Market and Gala event will be available on the website as well. All proceeds from this event go directly to the American Cancer Society’s breast cancer programs and services. About Making Strides Making Strides Against Breast Cancer or MSABC is the largest network of breast cancer awareness events in the nation, uniting more than 300 communities to finish the fight. Every breast cancer walk and event is an incredible and inspiring opportunity to honor those who have battled breast cancer, raise awareness about what we can do to reduce our breast cancer risk, and raise money to help the American Cancer Society fight the disease with research, information, services, and access to mammograms for women who need them.
Historical Hunts Ltd. presents the 12th Annual Silk Road Hunt & Event (4-26 June 2022). Our theme this year is "Crossroads: Japan." Therefore, when you arrive at the event, you will find yourself in a place much like Edo Period Japan!
The Hunt is grid-wide, which means hunters will hop store-to-store following landmarks inside each hunt item. The Event is in Mieville Shelley, at a brand new mega-build created for high visibility and smooth traffic flow.
There are tons of free gifts and top-quality merchandise available. Seventy merchants are participating, with a wide range of decor, clothing, jewelry, furniture, and full perm items for your shopping enjoyment. For a full list of shops, please view our blog (https://historicalhunts.blogspot.com) and click "Participating!" at the top. The list of merchants includes Sky Willow, Grendels, Fairey Angel Creations, Sanna - Science and Art, Texworks, Timeless Textures, Pixel Box, Kisetsu, ~Lantian/Flox~, Storybook Cats, Grasshopper St., and many more!
There is also great entertainment on-hand, including the very popular group: "Keeba's Tiny Maniacs!" In addition, we offer traditional dancers, an Asian violinist, wandering storytellers, live DJs, haiku and fishing contests, an art show, and four big, costume-themed parties.
Lastly, there is a game at the Silk Road Event called the "Clicky Kitsune Quest." Once visitors get the free HUD at the Arrival Area, they can wander and click randomly-appearing kitsune (foxes) for points. These Clicky Kitsune are spread throughout the event, so visitors are encouraged to explore. Points can be traded at any time for a wide range of gifts, available at participating merchants' Event booths. The entire system is FREE, and past, similar games have proven highly popular.
