BAY CITY’S ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION NEARS
Local Citizens Honor 14th Year in Second Life®
BAY CITY, SL (3 May, 2022) - The Second Life® mainland community of Bay City turns fourteen this May, and its Residents are once again hosting their traditional parade down Bay City’s Route 66, followed by a live music event in their fairgrounds.
The first project of the Linden Department of Public Works, Bay City opened in May of 2008. It has developed into the largest community-focused virtual urban area in Second Life, and helped to pave the way for later Second Life-based community-focused projects.
The annual parade’s participants are asked to gather at noon SLT/PDT on Sunday, the 15th of May, to lineup at the band shell in Bay City - Harwich. The parade will travel down Route 66 beginning at 12:30 p.m. SLT/PDT, and will conclude at the Bay City Fairgrounds in the North Channel region.
A live concert will kick off at 1:30 p.m. SLT/PDT at the Fairgrounds, featuring DJ GoSpeed of KONA Stream providing music leading into the event until 1:30 p.m.SLT/PDT , followed by Stephanniyah Sinatra from 1:30 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. SLT/PDT, Mavenn from 2:30-3:30 p.m. SLT/PDT, and Criss Covers (Criss Fredriksson) from 3:30-4:30 p.m. SLT/PDT.
All Residents of the Second Life grid are encouraged to participate. Celebration goods, including parade float bases and ideas, are available at the Bay City Community Center, in the Daley Bay region for those who wish to be a part of the event. Ample viewing areas are provided for all. The music event is also open to all who desire to attend -- not only Residents of Bay City, but the entire grid is welcome.
Bay City is a mainland community, developed by Linden Lab™ and home to the Bay City Alliance. The Bay City Alliance was founded in 2008 to promote the Bay City regions of Second Life® and provide a venue for Bay City Residents and other interested parties to socialize and network. It is now the largest Bay city group, and home to most Residents of Bay City.
