This is the part of the 2007 Can't Stop The Serenity events where the organizers get to say "thanks."

Thanks to the thousands of people around the globe who came out to attend the screenings, making it possible for us to meet our goal of raising over $100,000 for Equality Now.

Thanks to the legions of volunteers who helped make the events such a success, fighting the effects of Murphy's Law to make sure everyone had a great experience.

Thanks to the global sponsors who donated the wonderful gifts for distribution among the attendees.

Thanks to Joss Whedon, whose Big Damn Movie is still captivating enough to bring out the aforementioned thousands to see it on the big screen one more time.

Thanks to Equality Now, for their continued work to bring humanity back into balance.

As for 2008...

Just like last year, the organizers were coming up with ways to make next year's events bigger and better than this year's -- before we were done with the current year's events. There are already sites confirmed for 2008. Universal has already given their OK for hitting it again. One of the global sponsors -- Quantum Mechanix -- has pledged their support as long as the event is running.

So, mark your calendars and tell your friends. We will definitely be back next year.
