When is bank night for the 17 October

Just made a team-- have lots of questions!!!

communityreply@lls.org — Mon, 21 Sep 2009 13:17:16 GMT

I just started making a team for my husband, Jayson, who is NHL survivor! I only wish we would have started sooner... since the walk is just about a month away we have lots of organizing to do and since we signed up so late, all the kick off meetings took place, so I think we could use some help. So as I understand it, whoever on my team raises a $100 will get a shirt. Does everyone get to carry a balloon or to carry one you have to raise $100? Also, kids are allowed to walk, what about baby srtollers? I have a few friends with small children. O- and a banner for our team, How do we go about getting one? And the day of the walk I'm sure I have to sign in some where, do I need to be really early or can do it the day before? And also, fundraising ideas... I welcome any, so please anyone with a minute to give me some advice or tips or answer some of my questions, Our team would greatly appreciate it, Thanks so Much!!!

Need a Team Name

Ok, this is stupid, but I really can't come up with a name for my team. I was thinking Steph's Survivors, but wanted to be sympathetic to the people who are missed. Any ideas? Told my husband we could be Steph's StormTroopers, but he thought that was dumb...lol. And he's the Star Wars fan.. I desparately need a name to start my team online and fundraising. Any help would be appreciated.

Need ideas for using facebook better

communityreply@lls.org — Tue, 11 Aug 2009 14:04:27 GMT

All,

I have alot of enthusiasm but not alot of facebook experience.

My facebook friend list is slowly growing and I want to share my enthusiasm for Light The Night.

In addition to posting about our local upcoming event, does anyone have examples of how else I could use facebook. Especially needed are step by step instructions for how to make it look nice.

I wish there was some widget to show my teams goal and total on my facebook page or some way that friends could "click" a link on my page to go to my LTN page where they could sign up to donate. Also, I like the buttons but wasn't sure how to add them or if they can be set up as a clickable link to my contribution page.

Thanks in advance for any help or further ideas.

John

Balloons

communityreply@lls.org — Thu, 09 Apr 2009 14:24:51 GMT

There is a poll asking what color balloon I am, and I still can't find out where it tells what each color means. When I did a search on the word "balloon", nothing came up under light the night, so I'm clueless.

Question about balloons-which one do I carry?

communityreply@lls.org — Wed, 26 Aug 2009 01:11:07 GMT

Hi Everyone,

I have a question about balloons. I know that white balloons are for survivors, gold balloons are for people that we have lost and for those walking in memory of someone and red ones are for supporters. I am going to walk in my first Light the Night walk in Spetember. I am confused about which color of balloon to carry. I am currently done with treatment ( but may not be done for sure it depends on the study I am participating in and shold find out anytime) so what color of balloon do I carry being a current patient. I also consider myself a survior after everything I have gone through. However, according to LLS which color of balloon is appropriate for me to carry? Or is it up to me to make this decision? What have you all done?

First time attending light the night

Hi Everyone,

I am thinking about attending my first light the night walk with my mom. What exactly happens? What can I expect? Do you think it is worth the experience of going? I am shy and find it hard to do big group things. My mom and I are going to attend an informational meeting on the local Light the Night Walk in my area. What kind of experiences have you had all with the Light the Night walk?
