MORE ABOUT THE EVENT

ABC Survivors will be having its first Team Sarcoma event this July! While other teams are meeting around the world, we will enjoy one another's company from July 12-20 in a series of online challenges. Team Sarcoma / ABC Survivors will be an online, interactive, fun and meaningful Team Sarcoma event. The purpose of the event is to do something together during International Sarcoma Awareness Week. The event will be advertised at the Team Sarcoma weblog and Facebook, and visitors will be stopping by to see what we're doing.  Some of the most insightful challenge entries may be used in future ABC Survivors publications. So put your best foot forward, have some fun, and show the world what it is to LIVE with and beyond sarcoma!

THE CHALLENGES
Our Team Sarcoma board works differently than the other boards. You can see all of the topics for Sarcoma Awareness Week, but you can't respond to each one until a certain day. The basic idea is that there is a new challenge every day from July 12-20. But you don't have to complete all of the challenges to participate, so please join in whenever you can.    

Have questions??? Reply to this message and ask!

Looking forward to the fun,   Grin
Mary


The Fine Print: Due to technical issues, our event is for ABC Survivors members only and is not open for public participation. New members will not be accepted during the week of July 12-20, because our administrator will be traveling with Team Sarcoma in Europe. If you would like to participate in Team Sarcoma / ABC Survivors, you will need to join the ABC Cafe before July 8, 2008. Adult bone sarcoma patients, survivors, and caregivers of adult bone sarcoma patients are welcome to join us.

Well, I spent a while today stuffing envelopes and mailing all of your bracelets!

A note to the international players - I had to send your bracelets in a hurry earlier this week. I wanted to make sure you received them in time. Unfortunately, this meant that I didn't get to put a letter in the envelope for you. I'm sorry about that!

So, I hope you're all ready for the fun.  Smiley


Oh, and I just finished making a personality test that you're gonna take. Hehe. It's fun!

All right folks, Cari and Tara are moderators for the event. If you have questions or need help, send them a message!

Cari will be unlocking our challenges every day so that we can complete them in order. If you find that the day's challenge is locked during the middle of the day, contact Cari or Tara to unlock it.

I fly out on Friday for Germany! I am tired of trying to figure out what to pack for ten days. Warm, cool, rain, shine, ack!   Smiley I'm just ready to be there and enjoy the experience. I'm hoping and praying that my back won't hurt as bad as it did in Denmark in 2006. I can't even tell you how bad that was! But this is a different trip, thank goodness.  Cheesy

Hugs to all. I will try and write in when I have internet access....
