Next month we’ll recap out Founders Dinner, but this month we want to talk about our fun trip to Red Hawk Casino. We took advantage of a nifty program, in which the casino sends a free bus to take groups and bring them back after five hours there.
Rosie Quinones sends one right down the middle.
Nearly two dozen of us boarded the air-conditioned shuttle bus for an afternoon of bowling and pool playing in their Apex entertainment center and, of course, taking a turn at what seemed like an endless sea of slot machines in their gaming area. Many who went on the trip were surprised at how quickly the time went by and before they knew it, it was time to head to the Koto Buffet for dinner. That turned out to be a bargain, as well, Red Hawk was running a promotion in which the $30 buffet was half-price on Wednesdays.
Coming up soon is National Coming Out Day, celebrated on Oct. 11 every year. While the legal and cultural climate for LGBTQ people has improved since the first one in 1988, people still experience backlash and rejection when they make the decision to live openly. Let’s take a moment to appreciate living in this community where Lavender Friends are welcome and accepted.
Lavender Friends is a club for LGBTQ residents and their allies.
