A Special Temple Surprise

8/21/2015

Have you ever had this amazing secret you wanted to share with the world, but couldn't? Me too! Like, right now.
This is what I can tell you: Now that we've got the Temple fully funded, we had all this time on our hands** and have come up with this pretty incredible addition to the Temple that we need a few thousand dollars to make happen. I can't tell you what it is, but I can tell you that it's pretty amazing, and will add something new and unique to your Temple experience that you haven't seen before.
Give To Make The Surprise Happen!

What the surprise isn't:
  • A performance of 'Freebird' by the surviving members of Lynyrd Skynyrd. 
  • The new Thunderdome.
  • Bacon. (sorry)
  • Something you've come to expect from Temples.

Nope!
What it is:
  • A new kind of experience at the Temple. 
  • A beautiful idea that will make your Temple time even more special.
  • Completely, totally secret. Many of the Temple build crew don't even know! That is how secret this is. We're talking Vatican Archives-level secrecy, except without the goofy Swiss guard uniforms and with a lot more PBR involved (which, admittedly, may have a negative impact on operational security, but it's important to stay hydrated).
  • It's just that cool, and we believe it'll be more impactful as a surprise.  

If we don't get it funded, it's not the end of the world by any means. The Temple will still be there, in all its copper-clad glory!

Is the dude in the lower-right concerned that his hat might blow off in a dust storm? I would be. I bet that staff has some kind of fire effect though.
The amount we need isn't that large. Help us make the Temple even better with this surprise!

** Total lie. We did not have a lot of time on our hands and are still scrambling, though are on schedule. Check out this pic from today, 8/17, of the Temple build on playa! Early days still, but progress is being made.
