Thanks to Jacki and Hannah for coordinating the Pride booth at the park last month - although our placement was a tad out of the way, several people did come by, and our mailing list is expanding! The Pride Day in Spokane was well attended and without incident. Important to note that Coeur d'Alene Pride in the Park was held just before Spokane's event. It was also well attended and without incident.

Please note that our July Tuesday Taco Night will be July 11th, at the Garland Drinkery, beginning at 5:00pm. We will not be meeting on the 4th.

We are reliably informed that the Drinkery is very LGBTQ+ friendly, pet friendly, and easy on the wallet. The Drinkery is located on Garland. 828 W Garland Ave

Our monthly potluck will be Saturday, July 8, noon at our regular place - UU of Spokane.

We do rely on volunteers to help set up and clean up.

4340 W Whistalks Way

Please RSVP to Nancy so that we can plan accordingly. RSVP NancyTavery@comcast.net

At our Steering Committee meeting June 29, it was decided to pursue an affiliation with SAGE. Next month's newsletter will have a more in-depth summary of what that means.
