SUNDANCE: This Saturday

The Sundance Auction — Sept. 3

The first night of Sundance is the Sundance Live and Silent Auction. With over 500 items, it always has something for every taste and budget.

For the second year in a row, auctioneer Lorne Crawford will bring his skills to the stage at Sundance, and keep the Live Auction exciting and fun. “He’s amazing!” says CAMP Rehoboth Executive Director Steve Elkins, “When he walked into our lives last year, it was a huge gift. Wow, we thought, this man really knows what he’s doing!”

The Auction night includes an open bar and a fabulous buffet, this year featuring the food of five fantastic area restaurants: Henlopen City Oyster House, JAM Bistro, Primo Hoagies, Hobos, and Café Azafran.
Sundance Team Captain Jane Blue has worked hard to make the food at Sundance a special treat this year. “I loved working with the restaurants,” she says. “They’re really developing a menu with variety—something for everyone,” she adds.

Though most of the fantastic items in the auction will be a part of the Sundance Silent Auction, a variety of the best will be featured in the Live Auction, including: Art by Sondra N. Arkin, Ward Ellinger, and Bill Snow; the cover of Letters from CAMP Rehoboth with a studio shot by Carolyn Watson Photography; a week at a fantastic villa in Costa Rica; a flat screen TV from Overture; an incredible Civil Union Package that includes everything you need for a perfect Civil Union ceremony and party; a full page, full color, one year ad in Letters; jewelry; and much more.

“Setting up for Sundance is like moving into a new home,” says Sundance Graphics Team Captain Mary Beth Ramsey. “We set up a full graphics studio to handle all the display boards and signage for the auction. It’s amazing!”
Sundance Co-chair Natalie Moss adds, “and we couldn’t do it without all our volunteers—especially the ones doing the behind the scenes calling and auction item pick-up.”

The Sundance Live and Silent Auction is Saturday, September 3, from 7-10 p.m. and includes an open bar and a cocktail buffet. Tickets are $45 (or $80 for both nights of Sundance) and are available at CAMP Rehoboth (302-227-5620), or on the CAMP Rehoboth website.

A Pseudo- Rant / Charge to Action

To all my LGBT family members of Delaware,


Firstly, I want to praise the community for how far we've gotten already: the Civil Union Bill, wow! that's huge!!!

It pains me to hear people complain that Delaware's LGBT community isn't very well established. Ironically, I've heard new gay/lesbian individuals to the state praise Delaware for its surprising population. The question now is: What can Delaware do to become more of an LGBT hotspot?

The answer lies in you, the people; not the state's 8 primary organizations that cater to the needs of the LGBT community. How frequently has it been said that people hope for "they" to start a new event, or for "they" to open a new bar, or for "they" to open more gay-friendly venues. But who is "they"? Is it Delaware Pride? CAMP Rehoboth? AIDs Delaware? These organizations are all phenomenal groups, run by heroes in our community, who do extraordinary things; but sometimes they have so much red tape or limited budgets that they can't initiate every newest thing. Which means the answer, once again, is you: the people of Delaware.

Delaware, this is your charge for action. If you would like to see something happen, please understand that many of these great events or congregations must happen from the ground up. It's you, it's us, who needs to take the responsibility upon our own shoulders to gather for coffee/cocktails, to fly your own rainbow flags or to open your own cute pet boutique. If you would like to see a new LGBT event started, do the research then motivate yourself and your friends to establish it. This is entirely possible. At the heart of it all, anyone who complains, cares. And anyone who cares, should also have the motivation to be proactive.

Delaware, with the passing of the Civil Union Bill, please have the courage to step out your doors with your head held a little higher. For more info or motivation, check out the "Chain of Links" off the the right for a list of the organizations serving our community and get involved. You are your own future.

Love always,
Delaware GLU

CAMP Rehoboth Chorus

CAMP Chorus to Celebrate 1940s Music
(The following is the info from their Facebook event)

Strike Up the Band!
January 23 at RB Theatre of the Arts - With the demise of Don't Ask, Don't Tell and the nation's passion for nostalgia, this seems the perfect season to celebrate the awesome music of the 1940s and the World War II era.

...From the Andrews Sisters to Irving Berlin, USO shows to Glenn Miller, 1940s and World War II era music makes up some of the most stirring and gorgeous melodies in American song.

That music, and the CAMP Rehoboth Chorus' signature campiness, big choral sound, and dramatic narration will all come together Sunday, January 23 for two performances only of the concert Strike Up the Band at the Rehoboth Beach Theatre of the Arts on Baltimore Avenue in Rehoboth.

After last winter's sell-out show (during a snow storm!) the group has planned two shows on Jan. 23, a matinee at 3 p.m. and an evening performance at 7 p.m.

Tickets are $15 and are now on sale at CAMP Rehoboth, 302-227-5620.

The show, under the artistic direction of Fay Jacobs, and musical direction of Bill McManus, will be a salute to that marvelous 40s music, including a special tribute to ALL who have served now that Don't Ask, Don't Tell is off to history's hall of shame.

From the familiar to the patriotic, sentimental to inspirational, plus some campy fun thrown in, the concert will be a crowd-pleaser. From "In the Mood" and "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy" to "The White Cliffs of Dover," not to mention "Oh, How I Hate to Get Up in the Morning," the music will rock and the audience will be moved.

Since its inception in the fall of 2009, the chorus has grown from 22 members to verging on 40. The four-part singing group is open to anyone in the area who likes to sing. While it is a program of CAMP Rehoboth, the chorus boasts a wonderful diversity, with singers both gay and straight, young-at-heart and younger. Rehearsals are Monday evenings at the CAMP Rehoboth Community Center.

In addition to CAMP's backing, Go Fish Seafood Restaurant, owned by the generous Alison Blythe, is once again the presenting sponsor. Go Fish has made it possible for the chorus to create more costumes, purchase more music, and thrive.

Choral Director Bill McManus is the music man for the Chorus. As a graduate of the Hartt College of Music at the University of Hartford and a professional teacher and soloist, Bill brings his expertise to the fledgling group. He will be performing a solo again this year, along with the return of the Chorus' favorite opening trio. In addition, there will be more specialty numbers and fun!

Accompanist David Zipse, a veteran performer around the state and in Atlantic City brings a huge following and musical talent to the chorus as well. His keyboard magic plays a big role in the success of the group.

So call 302-227-5620 for your tickets. The Chorus will put you "In the Mood" and you might even catch a glimpse of Rosie the Riveter.

For more information call CAMP Rehoboth at 302-227-5620, or check out www.camprehoboth.com

The News Journal Recognizes World AIDS Day

News Journal Recognizes World AIDS Day

People may think of AIDS as a disease that strikes only certain groups -- men who have sex with men or people who use intravenous drugs -- but 24 percent of Delawareans living with HIV/AIDS were exposed through heterosexual contact, according to state statistics.



While the largest number of HIV/AIDS cases continue to be diagnosed among African-American men, women are getting infected at increasing rates. In 1990, 24 percent of newly diagnosed AIDS cases were female; in 2008, women accounted for 34 percent of new cases, according to a comprehensive HIV prevention plan developed last year by the Delaware Division of Public Health and the Delaware HIV Consortium.

Here is, quite possibly, the ultimate lesson of life

Here is, quite possibly, the ultimate lesson of life... brought to you in a simple conversation. I wonder how many people might recognize/remember the speech. This is the transcript.

2 people, R and T are talking:


R: Don't take it personally, its just his opinion. I've learned this long ago: what other people think of me is none of my business. But I want to say you're beautiful. That's the reason you're here. Can I hug you right now? You're here because you're so fabulous, please don't forget that. It's about creative people, who are saying “I'm gonna do my own thing.' and inspire other people to do that, and I think you're doing that. Its not easy, its not easy. It's almost an act of treason in a male dominated society. So we're gonna be up against a lot of criticism.

T: So why feed into that negativity, though?

R: Its there. It's just part of the experience.

T: Why do we have to be the negative asshole? Why can't we be the Pollyannas?

R: This is a competition, there are polar opposites. If we all just said you're fabulous, you're fabulous, you're amazing, you're amazing... there's nothing to it.

T: Because I am amazing!

R: You are!

T: But why are you giving me so much negativity?

R: Because you forgot it, you forgot you are amazing. If you take on someone else's negativity, its because, goddamnit, you forgot it! Its not my responsibility to make you feel good all the time. You're not a loser, that's why you're here today! You forgot who you were... we didn't forget, you forgot! You forgot, Tammy, you forgot that you're fabulous. Don't blame me for that! That's your fucking responsibility. And that's the same for all of you, the reason you're here is because you're all goddamn stars! How many times do we have to put that in your head? You're a fucking star! Don't let anybody tell you that you're not! If I had a nickel for every time somebody said to me 'you can't become a star' I'd have a million billion dollars! I know what I am, I don't forget who I am, and that's true for all of you. Never forget! Everyone's gonna tell you “no, you can't do it, you can't do it, you can't do it” but that's because they're projecting their negativity onto you! Now, we can't tell you that, because you won't believe it. You have to earn it. You have to own it yourself. I'm telling you now so we can end this conversation. You have to own it yourself, Dorothy. “Why did you tell me all we had to do was click our heels three times?” Because goddamnit, you wouldn't believe me! And that's why you're here. You're in this competition so that you own it, you own it. So that you process it, you process it. “Oh, they're saying bad things about me.” Own it, own it, and then you get to the understanding that “Oh, that wasn't me, that was their shit. That had nothing to do with me. That was them!” And then you own it. You know what... every time that happens to you in life, the time it takes for you to catch yourself gets shorter and shorter. Does that negativity ever go away, that self-doubt, does it go away? No, it doesn't go away. We can't tell you this, you have to walk through the fire. You walk through the fire, then you own it, and you can go” “Come for me, bitches! Come for me. You can say whatever you want, because you know why? I'm motherfucking fierce!”.

Why Delaware GLU exists...

On October 7, Delaware GLU was presented to an audience of about 150 people at the Ignite Wilmington conference.
"Ignite Wilmington is an information exchange for fostering and inspiring Wilmington’s creative community. In one evening, you’ll hear passionate speakers from our creative and technical communities talking about interesting current projects or favorite ideas for just five minutes. Presentations will educate and inspire you, and maybe even make you laugh in the process."
-- from their website: www.ignitewilmington.com


The Speech:
DelawareGLU is Delaware's first Gay/Lesbian news blog. It's a blog I've started in an attempt to bring order to the gay community of DE. Online, you can find it at: delawareglu.blogspot.com... the G.L.U. stands for Gays and Lesbians United ... because we've got to stick together!

This was a concept I was thinking of doing for a while.
I had known about a website in Philadelphia that listed upcoming events and miscellaneous information in regard to the gay population. This was my primary inspiration.

After thinking about it, I came to realize that Wilmington could pull this off, but there's more to Wilm's population that simply those in Wilmington: there's Hockessin, Newark, there's even Middletown. All of whom live close enough that they are willing to drive here and be patrons of the city. This is paralleled in the LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisex, transgender) community. So I couldn't ignore events at UD, Dover, or Rehoboth, which is a nationally renowned gay destination.

Consequentially, for this to be successful, I had to make this calendar be all-encompassing to the state of DE. This is possible because Delaware is a small state. There are about 7 or 8 primary LGBT organizations and each of these organizations have their own separate mission statement. I would notice on Facebook, Facebook being a common ground to make your announcements, these groups would post their events. It saddened me that some of these events would go unnoticed because many people don't even know these groups exist (COLAGE or PFLAG). There were so many amazing things happening independently from one another with little to no support from other groups, and they all just needed some form of ...glue!

So I decided to start a blog. My theory was: If nobody else will, then I guess I have to! I decided to take the initiative and make it my responsibility. After talking to Michelle K Fitzgerald, primary blogger for DE Arts, she requested to meet up and helped me set it up.

It's still a very grassroots concept, it's no giant organization, but I think it can be a platform for greater things. When you visit, you'll see I post up events from the local organizations, anything regarding LGBT news, or any random fun stuff (videos, music etc). Now that it exists, Delawareans have a place they can go to stay informed!

After a few months passed, I decided to take advantage of FB to create a page for DEGLU because that's pretty much where the public goes. We just reached 200 fans; I can see us having more, but it might take time.

This is ultimately a way to use technology such as the internet at its best to connect the gay community. Compared to the LGBT community 10 to 15 years ago, Wilmington's current LGBT community is broken. I hear from older residents they had 3 gay bars in the downtown area and the Pride festival was held in Rodney Square! The thought of that almost seems like a joke, we have one gay bar and its hard to create community when it seems people don't want to be around each other.

In January, I sent a questionnaire to 300 people, both friends and strangers, asking for their opinion of how to generate community spirit. A large majority of the responses were wishes that we could have just one building or one cafe to call our own. Since then, I've been toying with the idea of starting an LGBT community center right here in Wilmington. There's one in Rehoboth, but that's in Rehoboth.


A community is a group of people who live in the vicinity of the area. It's a group of people who have some connection, some sense of family, but many of these people are strangers to one another its sad when Wilmington has a good amount of great people.

Before I finish, I simply would like to take a moment to inject that I'm 25 years old. Although I may be young, I hope my age is perceived as an advantage. I'm essentially the future of this city. So by being involved now, I have the potential to develop this city into what I see it looking like and that's half the reason I got involved.

This is exactly the reason Ignite exists. It's all about motivated people, motivating people

Finally I'd like to say Thanks to the people at Ignite for inviting me.
Have a good night.

LGBT Questionnaire

Some of you might remember I sent out about 300 emails featuring the questionnaire below. Now that I'm coming back to the idea, I'd like to share some of your ideas. But first, this is the questionnaire: (also, if you're reading it for the first time and have some opinions, PLEASE email me at delawareglu@gmail.com)....

As a resident of Wilmington, it's important to me to live in a thriving city with a wide variety of fun/relaxing/elegant/outrageous things to do. Most everyone I know would agree, especially my friends in the LGBT community. Wilmington can seem “fun-challenged” at times, or maybe it’s just that the types of activities offered don’t appeal to you personally.

I'm writing you to get your opinions of what could be done differently:

A. What would you recommend changing to improve the evenings in Wilmington?
B. What events would you like to see started?
C. What sort of business/venue would you like to see opened?
D. Are there any establishments you patronize already who aren't specifically LGBT focused but could benefit from a greater sense of tolerance and support between each respective community?
E. What would it take for you, yourself to get out of your house and attend an event?


The primary purpose for the questions is based on the notion that we are a community. But what does that mean? A community is more than one person, one event, or one location. I'm incredibly envious of towns smaller than us that have Pride Parades, “gayborhoods,” rainbow flags on various houses, shops or restaurants and they understand “date night” to have a broad and inclusive meaning. It’s a chicken/egg scenario: we need a community to make these things work; we need these things to work to make us feel like a community. I’d like to see Wilmington be that kind of town, and so I am starting with something that I can impact: our sense of community.

I intend to send this message out to every person I know in hopes of getting excellent feedback from as many minds as possible. Hopefully, your feedback will help the various gay organizations in the state better understand the needs of the people. Consider this a community meeting you can attend online. The goal: To get the LGBT Community thinking about how to be a better community. Currently, there are groups and organizations struggling to kindle something, but many are hitting roadblocks. Again, it seems important to gauge what would excite you enough to show up somewhere, to sign up for something, or to attend an event knowing it's an LGBT oriented event.

If you respond, be genuine. Remember that details are key! Maybe you can suggest ways that you could offer help (advice, donations, talents). If ultimately you're not interested in evening events, are there any services or support groups geared toward the LGBT community that you would like to take advantage of?

If you've gotten this far, thanks for reading and I hope to hear back from you! There is no such thing as a bad response!

Breaking News: Early Christians Condoned Gay Marriage

AlterNet.com


The following passage is the final paragraph and final thoughts of the article above:


Conservative Christians who insist that "traditional marriage" has always been "between a man and a woman" are wrong and historically uninformed. Thus, they are poor guides for lawmakers and judges.


There is strong support in world religions for the view that homosexuality is not the problem; heterosexism is.

The principles of justice and equality that pulsate through those flawed but powerful classics that we call the “world religions,” are moving toward seeing heterosexism, with its resistance to same-sex loving unions, as a prejudice in a class with sexism, racism, anti-Arabism and anti-Semitism.

Humanity needs its exuberant diversity but humans shrink from it.

As theologian William Sloane Coffin said: “Diversity may be the hardest thing for a society to live with — and perhaps the most dangerous thing to live without.”
