First, the backstory.... in case you haven't heard by now, Linden Lab has decided that including the sl kids communities in the SL5B (second life's 5th birthday) celebration) is too much of a liability (http://dusanwriter.com/?p=536 for more info) and thus, we are not invited to help contribute to the celebration...so we're making our own! Enter the "Kids5B" group! We have decided to get a group together and make something that's going to be even bigger and better--and inclusive of ALL of the SL kids communities!
So now down to business. First of all, THANK YOU SO MUCH to everyone that came to the meeting today... it was so incredibly great to hear about everyone's ideas, and after a looooong discussion, I think we finally have a direction to go on. So here's what's going to happen.
As you all know, we have a sim for the event. Here's the link:
One of the biggest points we kept hearing over and over is that we want to make sure that everyone in the child avi community is represented, so we decided to come up with an idea of having the sim divided into four parts:
a. a BEACH theme. being organized by BOBBY OFFCOURSE.
b. an URBAN theme. organized by RAI FARGIS.
c. a FOREST theme. organized by GABRIEL CANNING and MYRTIL IGALY
d. a VILLAGE and ENTERTAINMENT AREA, organized by KOFFEEKID SMALLS
there is also the possibilty of a 5th sky area, if there is interest in organizing that, contact me (bobby offcourse) and i'll give you the details. If you're interested in helping out financially, please direct any linden transactions to DANIEL REGENBOGEN (and thank you in advance!). FL0 CALE is coming up with a sweet logo for the group, and LOKI ELIOT is helping with mapping out the areas.
So this is how it's going to work. We are encouraging everyone who possibly can to help out in any possible way, be it building, scripting, or just an idea that you think would be really cool but you don't know how to pull it off yourself, to get in touch with the people listed above. We need both ideas and people to help, build, script, or however else you can get involved. We really want this to be inclusive of ALL of the varied kid avi communities out there, and we need everyone's help to make this happen!
Our goal is to have this sim open at the same time as the "other" SL5B celebration, so those dates are 23 June 2008 until 30 June 2008. So we don't have much time. We have a lot to get accomplished and not a lot of time to do it, so we're all going to have to pull together and make this happen--and soon! If you want to stay in the loop (and we hope you do!), search for the "KIDS5B" group and join it. The group also has a blog at http://kids5b.blogspot.com/. Also please pass this notecard around to anyone who might be interested in helping.
We've got a lot of amazing ideas and we really want this to happen, but we can't do it without all of your support!

How do we post suggestions and make sure they are read and remembered? I'd love to see some sort of real life charity event tie in to this, such as a donation box for children's miracle network or some-such organization.
Good idea. I hope I'll be able to help. :)
Feel free to contact me in world or leave comments here for suggestions and ideas.
As far as charity, Tsukasa will be working on the charity portion as he has done with past fundraisers.
