A Mid-Autumn Afternoons Dream
Spring sprang, summer shined, winter welcomes, but I always
fall for autumn.
“Color my city bright and pretty.
She frolics in the maze her eyes deft avert my gaze;
I her mentor and she my muse, delighting in the painted
hues.
Come play with me under the big oak tree and happily we’ll
set our fancy free!”
Seriously though isn’t autumn wonderful? Come visit Bay
City!
Sunny Salutations

December 8th Tree Lighting and Charity Ball
We are seeking the donation of auction items for the Bay
City Alliance's annual Tree Lighting Festival and Charity Ball. We are again
looking to raise funds at this event for www.childsplaycharity.org . This
organization offers online communities such as ours, an opportunity to help
seriously ill children around the globe during their hospital stays with the
purchase of games and gaming equipment.
It would be so kind of you to offer a signature item for the
silent auction. All proceeds will go directly to www.childsplaycharity.org and
can be delivered to our dedicated alt baycitysl resident, and /or inquiries can
be made to Marianne McCann co-founder of the Bay City Alliance or Ever
Dreamscape, Editor, The Bay City Post. We would suggest that you send fun,
interesting, unique, or merely extravagant transfer items (or a no copy object
that the auction winner can give to you to redeem for their prize, if the
item(s) have to be no transfer) that reflect well on your SL business, as it is
also our goal to offer you a great opportunity to showcase yourself at this
popular annual event.
The Tree Lighting Festival is to be held Sunday, December
8th 2013 from 1-4 PM SLT at the Bay City Fairgrounds.The event features the tree lighting and silent auction, as
well as live and DJed music with GoSpeed Racer, CelticMaidenWarrior Lancaster,
and Grace McDunnough.
There will be ice
skating, dancing, refreshments and lots of fun! All are welcome to this free
public event and we would particularly like to invite you!!
Thank you for your kind consideration!
Cordially,
The Bay City Alliance Event Team
*Please send your holiday ornament to be hung on the tree to
Marianne McCann.
**Don’t forget the lighted boat parade to be held in the
North Channel later that month.

Halloween Party!
Just as predicted (smart aren’t we?) Halloween came October
31st this year. The Bay City Alliance held an awesome dance party at the
Hallowe'en Hay Maze at the Bay City Fairgrounds. The party featured Bay City
favorite DJ GoSpeed Racer! Hardly any pumpkins were hurt in the making of this
party.
Rumor had it that in addition to Marianne McCann and Pygar
Bu; the Lindens helped to spook up the fairgrounds and city. Thanks to Michael
Linden for some awesome lighting and the moles for their spookalicious creations

BAY CITY ALLIANCE
In October, The Bay city Alliance passed its fifth
anniversary as a group! The first meeting was 10th October, 2008 Only four
members who attended the first meeting (out of 25) are still active in BC. One
of the first action items was a welcome basket. BlueGin Yifu, founder of the
Bay City Alliance, passed in October 14th, 2010, roughly two years after
founding the Bay City Alliance. She
helped spearhead the sense of community, and community participation throughout
Bay City. To this day we still use a stage
design she created for our annual Anniversary event.

“A Taste of Bay City”
A Taste of Bay City Party is a party that YOU host at YOUR
place in Bay City. It can be your residence, business, group headquarters, or
any build you like; and held at a date and time of your convenience. It’s a
great opportunity to get to know your neighbors and showcase your prims.
Whether it’s a grunge party in your garage, a formal dinner, gallery opening or
what have you… people want to see you what you’ve got going on! If you’re new
to party planning it’s easy to get help from your fellow Bay City Alliance
members.
Isn’t it time YOU hosted a “Taste of Bay City Event” at YOUR
place? Come to a Bay City Alliance meeting to find out more!
