Antiquated Love Hunt coming to an end

Yes, the Antiquated Love Hunt at Antique Square is coming to a close at midnight SLT on February 29 (tonight!).  The hunt was a huge success!  Our first hunt/event at the new Antique Square could not have gone better.

I want to take a moment to thank all of the wonderful and creative shopkeepers who created the fantastic top quality prizes for the guests.  I also want to thank all of the guests who came, hunted, shopped, and enjoyed the locale.  Some of you joined the in-world group and some are following the blog.  Please continue to come, shop, and enjoy the scene at Antique Square.  Keep your ears and eyes open for more forthcoming news about events, sales, hunts, and so much more!

Please, if you have not had time to hunt yet, or gotten to finish the hunt (and kept saying you were gonna do that), make sure to stop on by Antique Square soon!  I have no idea when each shopkeeper will take their items, nor do I know if they intend to make them freebies or sell them in-store.  But, best to be safe and try and find them before getting into the pickle of "shoula, coulda, woulda". :)

Coming next month, we're planning a fantastic Spring Flower Festival; coordinated by our very own shopkeeper Clover Windlow and being prepared by many of our fantastic shopkeepers!

Photos from the Fireworks!

River Kyomoon took some fantastic photos from Sunday night's fireworks show!

Thanks so much, River!

Fireworks tonight!

Just a reminder to not miss tonight's fireworks show at Antique Square's pier.  The show starts at 5:00 PM SLT, so make sure you arrive a little bit early to get good seats.  It's an all-ages show, no admission, no dress code (other than please be dressed thanks), and we hope to see you there!

In order to best enjoy the fireworks tonight:

• Turn your Particles (in your Graphics settings) up to at least 1024.
• Your Draw Distance doesn't need to be too high; between 64 and 96m will be plenty to see the show by.
• Turn on your music stream!  There will be a selection of tunes to go with the fireworks
• Stay back behind the ropes, a safe distance from the launchers.
• Please refrain from screen-filling gestures or obtrusive particles during the show.
• If the pyrotechnician receives 1000L in tips during the show, she will blow up a certain breedable type chicken at the finale.  If she receives 5000L in tips, she will blow up a half dozen certain breedable type chickens at the finale.

See you tonight at 5PM!

Moonlight Serenade - A Vintage Valentine's Day Dance

Please join us in the Central Park at Antique Square on the night of February 14th (a Tuesday) for two hours of romantic music from the big band era.  DJ Hopalong Easterling (the "Big Band Bunny") will play all your favorite old time songs from Etta James, Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, Glen Miller, and so much more.  A couples' dance ball will be available.

Requested (but not required) attire is vintage formal.

The dance begins at 4PM SLT.  Don't be late!

Fireworks Spectacular @ Antique Square

You read it right!  On February 26 at 5 PM SLT, we'll be having a fireworks spectacular!  The event will be hosted by our vintage performer of the night and your hostess, Mistletoe Ethaniel.

Ms. Ethaniel has been bringing a festival of lights to audiences for years in SL.  In order to bring you the best show possible, she works tirelessly to coordinate the various fireworks in her arsenal.  Once she achieves the pattern of "booms", as she calls them, Mistletoe works to locate and program a music show to enhance the experience.  So, her audience not only gets a great light show, but a great evening of music!  Some of the music that you can expect to hear includes sousa and rag. 

So, come on over to Antique Sqaure; bring a friend, bring a posse, bring yourself!  Attire is required, but wear casual clothing for a night of lights and music under the stars February 26!

Attention Antique Square Shopkeepers

Thaddeus has foolishly generously put me in charge of planning a Spring Flower Festival for this March.  Think daffodils, crocuses, tulips, and more!

Things we'd like to include:

• live entertainment
• rides
• a themed hunt
• special promotions (in keeping with the theme)
• fireworks

What do you guys think?  Estimated time would be mid- or late-March (near or following the Spring Equinox).  Contact me (Clover Windlow or Mistletoe Ethaniel) with your ideas, and thank you!
