PRESIDEI^IAL NOTES
It s almost here! It seems like we’ve been planning for months and months,
but soon the 2nd Annual Southeastern Gay Conference will convene for three days of
non-stop ga3mess like Chapel Hill has never experienced! If you haven’t registered,
do so today and join over 200 people who have already registered!!
If you can provide housing, please let us know immediately. And most impor
tantly, we are going to need a lot of help at the Conference itself. There has been
a smaU group that has done most of the work so far; now I’m asking you, the masses,
to volunteer when we need you most! Please contact Karen, Dan, John or Howard if
you can help.
The Tea Dances at Blueberry Hill have been going really slow. I have been
quite disappointed at the lack of support shown by most local gays. Hank Morgan,
owner o lueberry, has lost $ to promote these dances for our benefit and for the
ene t o the National Gay Task Force. Please, show Hank your appreciation by
every other Sunday and Blueberry Hill! Hank
as given CGA more support than any bar owner in the area ever has, and we truly
appreciate his generosity.
1 a.m.
The next Tea Dance is March 27th. Hope to see you there! Fr^m 8 p.m. to
i. Free drinks are provided all night too!
... , ^ actions are coming up in April, Please be thinking about who you would
1 e o ^ve take over the leadership of CGA. We’ve made a lot of progress this
year, an I m looking forward to seeing CGA continue to grow next year. It is most
import^t or good people to step forward now. It’s hard work, but it is truly
rewar ing. How about you? Remember, we elect three officers: president, vice
presi ent and treasurer. Men and women who are students are eligible to run.
My special thanks to all the people who attended the outreach workshops. There
was a tremendous spirit generated, and a heck of a lot of productive work was ac
complished. We still have a number of outreaches in the offing for this semester,
bee the calendar for more information or talk to Allan Brown.
