2nd Annual Running of the Jaynes (Virtual) 5k fun Run!

One week still to go! So, there’s still time to sign up for the 2021 Running Of The Jaynes (Virtual) 5k Fun Run, July 11-25 – hosted by the shiny Pennsylvania Browncoats!

You don’t have to run! “When you can’t run, you crawl, and when you can’t crawl – when you can’t do that… You find someone to carry you.” You can walk, ride a bike or unicycle (we dare you!), strap on rollerblades, skates, or even snowshoes. You can even sign up and nominate another participant to “carry you” – do 5k on your behalf.

All proceeds benefit Equality Now as part of Can’t Stop the Serenity. “We’re just happy to be doin’ good works.”

These fun T-Shirts (pictured) are also available as part of this fundraiser.… Read more…

CSTS 2021 Greetings & Kickoff Announcements

Greetings, #Browncoats!

2020 was a challenging year for most of us, professionally, personally, and in fandom. However, enterprising local Can’t Stop the Serenity organizers still managed to raise $14,710 for Equality Now and other charities. This is pretty impressive considering all of the obstacles that had to be overcome.

Funds were raised many ways… live online and eBay charity auctions. Patch and t-shirt sales. Virtual events such as streaming watch parties and a “Running of the Jaynes” virtual 5K run/walk (photo attached). There were even a few in-person events utilizing masks, social distancing, and no/low contact raffles.

As we kick-off Can’t Stop The Serenity 2021 (#CSTS2021) you can expect waves and workshops providing guidance on how you can host your own virtual events and safe in-person activities as CDC and local guidelines allow.… Read more…
