LGBT Night
February 30th 2010
Central Arizona Rainbow Equality encourages interaction outside of the political spectrum. We definitely want to see the community involved with one another in non-political activities while spreading the word of the LGBT community's existence in Pinal County. We have started a LGBT night which is held once a month on the last Saturday of each given month. On February 27th 2010, we as a community, will be eating at the local Creative Cafe' in Casa Grande at 7pm. We ask that all members of the LGBT community and our allies show up a little early. Bring your friends and let us all make new friendships while we are there. Be sure to be there so we can discuss next months fun as well. For more information on LGBT nights, feel free to write christopher.hall@centralarizonarainbowequality.com
