So, a few things:

	First off, thank you to everyone for being part of this journey in Days of our Lives. I truly am thankful that you wonderful people have decided to indulge my wildest fantasy of doing a soap opera-styled roleplay. I hope you are as excited as I am finally be doing this. This is by far the best thing I've attempted, so hopefully, it shows down the road.

	Secondly, our first ICly event will be a 4th of July Celebration that is going to be celebrated all around Salem and the decorations are all around the town, so please take note of that when writing your posts. Our current day is 7/3/18, so please make your posts reflect that. And as it stands right now, it is a free period to do what you feel is in the best interest of your character. I highly encourage you get with whoever you need to get the most out of your first series of interactions. 

	Lastly, I would highly encourage that you think about what could be some high-intense drama for your characters. We are going to encourage you guys and gals take advantage of the sandbox-style approached his roleplay has so you can forge your own stories. And because of that, the parent characters are NPCs, so feel free to use them in any way you see fit. 

	So, please, have a blast! I know I will! :wub
