Picnic at ChiggerHaven
Even hungry Texas chiggers didn't stop the participants in the Annual
Memorial Day Picnic from having a great time of feasting, frivolity and
fellowship. Our very active Social Committee organized a host of games,
some more active than others, including volleyball, croquet in the shade and
badminton (enjoyed especially by Kyle). It has been reported to me (the
editor and roving reporter) that the weather was hot, the food was in
abundance and that the chiggers were especially well fed despite sulphur
treatments by some and the rubbing of "dryer sheets" to the legs by others. I
fear that the "Dryer sheets" is an old wive's tale. So I look forward to this
social event next year ..... where is that sulphur ?
All Welcome at PFLAG
Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians & Gays - Dallas, quite a mouthful
but as you can see this is an extremely inclusive group and we are welcome
to attend their meetings. This is an opportunity for us to discuss issues that
we may have with our sexuality and the community in general, a chance to
get another perspective on issues such as "coming out to your parents".
This is also a forum where we can assist the friends and family members of
others to understand that there friend or family member is not alone or
"queer". PFLAG meets at 7pm, the second Thursday of each month, at
Midway Hills Christian Church, 11001 Midway, Dallas. This month's
speaker is the Rev. Roger Wedell of the Fort Worth AIDS Resource Center.
For more information call Jim or Shirley at (214) 337-2371.
Upcoming Events: Please call David on 821-6706 to contribute
happy news such as an anniversary, birthday, holy union, or any
upcoming event of interest to all members.June
