A Little Bit Country at Rainbow Gardens

The Bluegrass Country Band performing at Rainbow Gardens
On September 9, Rainbow Gardens hosted the Bluegrass Country Band, for a Hoe Down country music concert.  The event was well attended with folks coming in casual dress, cowboy/cowgirl outfits, and everything in between.  Besides some nice country music, the Hoe Down featured bull riding, farm animals, barbecue and beer. 

September's Noah Wish Exhibit
Rainbow Gardens Pet Memorial Center is a non-profit memorial in Second Life dedicated to providing consolation to those mourning the loss of real life pets.  Rainbow Gardens has a Second Life and Facebook group.  Events, such as the Hoe Down and previous Scottish Dance, as well as exhibits related to pets and animals are scheduled regularly, and announced on these groups. Upcoming events will include a Halloween dance, Salsa, and Beatles Nights.  The current exhibit is "Noah's Wish" created by Francesca Alva, a Noah's Ark-like exhibit with information on an animal charity,  http://noahswish.org/.

Garden Gift Shop will help to raise funds for Rainbow Gardens
The new Garden Shop, located at Rainbow Gardens, sells low-cost items with a pet or memorial theme.  Currently, our cat and dog rescue t-shirts are available as well as a personal memorial that can be customized and set on one's own land.  More items will be available soon.
