Designed and constructed as a statement piece for 2025 and originally named The Spire, this imposing dance and events venue now proudly bears the name of the late Second Life Coast Guard (SLCG) Commandant Mandy Carthage Leeks
Mandy was a great and enthusiastic supporter of our event, and sadly passed away shortly after last year's Festival after taking part with great gusto in SLCG demonstrations just weeks before her death
Although technically only a temporary part of the Erik region environment, the Tower now stands as a monument to Mandy all year round, and is one of only a few structures that are not taken down when the Festival ends each year
Thank you dear Mandy for all your kindness and support
We hold your memory close always, and most especially at Festival time
