Winter Party Festival 2009 is here!


Update: The picnic was great!!! At least 250 people showed up. Thank you all that supported the event!!
I am getting into my giant hamster ball and getting a running start. Winter Party Festival is almost officially here. I attended the first volunteer orientation last night and have the second on Saturday. Saturday night is the "By invitation only" Cocktail Reception with South Beach Aids Project (SOBAP) where they will present their Safer Sex Campaign for this year.


Sunday is the event I am the chair of: The LGBT Family Picnic. I have wrangled Mr. S to volunteer and Miss Vickie and Penny will be attending. I am providing them a space to display for TERI (Transgender Equality Rights Initiative).


There is a week long series of meetings and events I need to and want to go to. I have already agreed to chair one of the events next year (more on that after I confirm it).


The weather looks like it is going to cooperate. The Countess will be attending with her entourage of beautiful boys ... ( I can already see the jealous glances ) and during the week there will be some special guests. Judge David Young will host the VIP Reception, Daniela Sea (Max from Showtime's "The L-Word"), and Nicole Henry will perform at the Jazz Brunch. Other rumored attendees: The winner of last year's design star and one of the cast members from last year's Real World .... I'm sure everyone will have a great time.
