Gay Skate AZ: White Out Winter Skate Party

Calling all allies, bears, bisexuals, bottoms, butch, drag stars, fairy godmothers, fag hags, femmes, friends of Dorothy, fruit flies, gays, homos, leatherboys, lesbians, queens, queers, studs, tops, trannys, twinks, and any blessed soul we left out. Gather your friends in the gayborhood, come out of the closet and skate the rainbow at Great Skate on Thursday, January 17th from 8-11pm as we celebrate life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. (Not to mention a few Bdays ... hint hint ... DJ Tsunami, Carlton Thompson, & Jeffrey Adams) =================== ALL AGES WELCOME ! =================== Only $10 including skates. Wear white and bring a non-perishable food item to benefit Joshua Tree Feeding Program. ( You save a buck off admission if you do ! ) If gays didn't invent rollerskating we don't know who did. We're willing to bet our rainbow-striped skate laces there's going to be some bumping music at the roller rink with DJ Tsunami at the controls !! There's always plenty of hugs and smiles to share. From roller-skating newbies to seasoned middle-aged pros, this is an ALL AGES event for all types of people ! Luckily, this is a private party where you might see wigs, pumps, booty shorts, muscle boys, and a few drag queens somewhere in between. All that fun, plus, the organizers are looking to help LGBT non-profts in the Phoenix area with a simple fundraiser. The event also provides a great way for groups to get the word out about what they are doing. Similarly awesome events have been done all over in places like Portland, OR, Redwood City, CA, Brisbane, Australia, Fort Lauterdale, FL, and Detroit, MI to name a few ! Since our premiere event April 2011, we have been producing epic skating parties for the LGBT community, and we couldnt do it without YOU as we are now in our 3rd year, and still going strong !! Every event is a benefit & previous non-profit LGBT groups like GLUAD, 1 Voice Community Center, H.E.R.O, Phx Pride Scholarship Program, 1n10 Drop In Center, GLSEN, Joshua Tree, & many others to come, have been featured. Gay Skate is a Roller Skating Session hosted primarily, but not exclusively, for the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Communities benefiting GLBT charities. We have tables throughout the lobby & benches along the side wall. There are video games along the side wall for those that don't wish to skate or just want something to do while taking a break. In addition, the snack-bar is open for the sale of pizza, hot dogs, candy, chips, ice cream, various soft-drinks and bottled water.
