PFLAG 2008 Annual Family Picnic |
| |
|
Neither rain nor snow nor hail nor dark of night can stop the PFLAG Family Picnic! Well, rain at least. We learned that with our huge pavilion and a patio umbrella placed strategically over the grill, we can hold our picnic rain or shine! Lots of folks came and had a great time. Were you there?

and confidential space for everyone. Teens and young people are
invited to participate in our

and new parents are welcomed to meet separately w/another parent for a
confidential discussion. We also have an active Parent Forum that meets regularly on another evening.
We have a great group of lesbian and gay members, as well as kids who have gay parents. We don't just celebrate diversity in our chapter...we are diversity!
Meetings are held on the second Tuesday of each month beginning
at 7:30 PM at the
