We're
Here, We're Dear, and Now We're 30!!
Yeah,
yeah, we know -- we don't look a day over 25! We get that ALL
the time! Wow! 30 years! We're there, cupcakes! 30 years
ago, a small set of courageous Phoenix parents got together and
took a stand for their gay and lesbian children. Along the way,
many others joined in our efforts, and we owe ALL of them our
indebted gratitude. This November, we plan to pause, to look
back, to appreciate, and to celebrate all that has taken place, and
to look forward at what we still need to accomplish.
Preliminary details are now released (see below). Stay tuned for more
details as they materialize. And best yet, come be a part of
this magical celebration!
PFLAG Phoenix
Plans 30th Anniversary Celebration
November, 2008 marks the 30th
anniversary of PFLAG Phoenix. If you haven’t heard by now,
plans are being made for a Gala Celebration during the weekend
of November 6th-8th. Details will be released as
they are finalized, but current plans include a golf tournament,
gala dinner, kick-off party, and a performance/concert.
There are several things you can do to help:
-
Go
to your calendar right now and reserve those dates (Nov.
6th-8th) to participate in the festivities!
-
Mail
your check for PFLAG
Phoenix membership today. There will be discounted
tickets available to every event for current PFLAG Phoenix
members. However, if you are not an active (i.e., dues
paid) member of PFLAG Phoenix, you will have to pay full
price for the events.
-
Think about being on a planning committee. We need
lots of help and ideas. This will not happen without a
large volunteer base.
-
We
are looking for PFLAG Phoenix pictures and news from the
last 30 years. If you have pictures, news clippings,
or stories, please consider sharing.
To join a committee or share items from the last
30 years, please contact Rebecca at
