Upcoming Events


SOFAS WANTED

We are going to have plenty of out-of-town dignitaries visiting in the next month or so (June 30th's BELT party, and for Pride in July), and I'd sure like them to be able to crash at local men's houses and sleep on local sofas (or an inflatable bed). In a horrid economy, it's courteous to encourage the best men from other cities to save some buck$. I do this every year, and it's a blast.  These aren't random, untrustworthy strangers - they are the finest kind of men in our community. 


Last time we did this, I had nine guys staying over at my place, with one sleeping on the kitchen floor on an air-mattress. Perfect gentlemen, and a great experience. Lots of titleholders and community volunteers… The kind of guys who make a community proud!  Check out this picture to get an idea of the men that tend to come down and participate in our events.  Let me know if you have any sleeping accommodations you can spare. Thanks in advance!

CORRECTION

I had copied-and-pasted Adam's text about the ROMP weekend without clearly identifying that he had written the information, and that I did not.  It was unintentional, but very absent-minded of me!

RECENT ARTICLES




'Queens of Beer' to open first LGBT brewery ever in San Diego - The same folks who have done such a magnificent job of owning and operating Urban Mo's, Baja Betty's and Gossip Grill have now opened a fourth establishment - Hillcrest Brewing Co. - at the corner of Normal and University. It is all about artisan pizza and locally-brewed beer.  Based on their past successes (and deep commitment to our community), I expect it to do very well.


UPDATED INFORMATION ABOUT THE BIG PARTY ON THE 30TH

- Both the Eagle AND Numbers are hosting Back Room Parties on the 30th.  This is a great idea, because we need to bring that extra-hot energy back to San Diego. The Eagle can pull it off more often on a regular basis now, because they will have done the work to make it possible. Go to one party, and follow-up with the other. You win twice!

- There is a large team of men who will be acting as Community Representatives/Party Hosts at the BELT Party at Numbers. That way, the shy new guys who show up will feel welcomed into a wonderfully cohesive community.

GEMINI BIRTHDAY PARTY THIS FRIDAY

On Friday, June 15th, 7PM onward, Mike Russell and Robert are hosting a birthday party at the San Diego Eagle. If your birthday occurs between June 16th to July 15th, come and celebrate with other festive Geminians. There might be some giveaway goodies and a bar-special, so come on by!
