Sun Senior News
June 2025
By Joan Lacktis
A trip to the Medical Museum in Sacramento recently was one of the more unusual outings we have gone on lately. Lavender Friends went on a tour led by enthusiastic and knowledgeable retired doctors to view the exhibits showcasing medical history in the local area from the 1800’s. Artifacts included an iron lung from the time before the polio vaccine and amputation kits from the Civil War. Fascinating stuff!
Soher Youssef and Celinda Cantu show their Pride at last year’s Lavender Friends all-member Mixer.
This month will bring one of our favorite annual events — our members-only Mixer at the Sports Pavilion. We will dine on barbecued tri-tip and chicken and veggie kebabs with a variety of sides, washed down by a no-host bar. A highlight is always the entertainment provided by our talented members. Tables will have rainbow-themed decorations in honor of Pride month.
Gay Pride celebrations are held in June throughout the free world to celebrate the rights we have gained in the past 50 years — and our Mixer, begun originally for members to get a chance to meet and greet, is our own version of this celebration. Roseville held its Placer Pride celebration in May but there’s still time to plan an outing to Sacramento on June 14-15 for their parade and festival.
Lavender Friends is a club for LGBTQ residents and their supporters.
