Lelling 402 Report post Posted April 22, 2017 Hey everyone! Every few months, the OC Teams come together to organize a massive event extravaganza to support a charitable cause, and this May, we are planning our largest event yet! OpenCommunity's Amazing Community Week Birthday Toga Party Extravaganza! Ok, that's not really its official title, but it's pretty descriptive So let's break it down! What is happening? On May 1st, OpenCommunity will be 2 years old! In celebration of that, we are throwing a 7-day party filled with as many events as we can cram in! On May 13th, we are also going to be one of the two official EU organizers for this year's MS Toga Party, a charity event raising money & awareness for multiple sclerosis research! We have decided to make the MS Toga Party fundraiser our sponsored charity for the entire 8 days of the Community Week! There will be prizes, there will be fun, and there will be lots of things to do! Note that some regular events might be cancelled for the duration of the Community Week event. Sat 6th - Community Birthday! Sun 7th - Community Birthday pt. 2! Mon 8th-Fri 12th - Community Week! Sat 13th - MS Toga Party! (more info at theopencommunity.org/mstoga) More details on specific events coming soon! So join us for 8 days of crazy, amazing events, great rewards, and raising money for charity! How do I join? The events will be organized on TeamSpeak, and all you need to do to join is drop in at any time! Once the detailed schedules are up you'll be able to see which events start when and make it to the ones you're interested in! Or just stick around for the whole thing! I want more details!
