I am freaking out — because it’s that wonderful time of year that is Hair Fair! You can indulge your inner hair hoarder guilt free — because proceeds go to Wigs for Kids. This weekend also marks Relay Weekend — fun-filled, overnight event that unites Second Life Residents throughout the world to celebrate survivors (anyone who has ever been diagnosed with cancer), remember loved ones and raise money for the fight against cancer. They are close to having raised a total of $3,000,000 over the years — so help them reach that goal this year and contribute what you can!
In addition to these wonderful events, there is some good old fashioned exploring and festivities to enjoy. Drop in to the London Music Festival, wander the dark and mysterious Skull Island, do a little fantasy shopping, or get in some incredible sight seeing. Wherever you end up, please take lots of pics and share them on our Official Second Life Flickr page, because sharing is caring!
Don’t forget that this blog is a shortened digest of all the wonderful and amazing things going on — you can always hit up the full Destination Guide for more, and if you’d like to share a cool spot that isn’t in the Guide, submit it!
See you inworld soon!

New Palermo
New Palermo is a historical roleplay region set in 1933. The Volstead Act... "prohibiting the sale of hard liqour," remains in force. The likelihood of it soon being repealed has only made matters worse as cops and gangsters posture to either make a last big score or get hated criminals behind bars. Corruption is rife.
