Keystone State Rodeo – To be held early spring 2017. Tracie Lytle from Borrowing Freedom was in attendance and has offered their facility to hold the rodeo school and trail rides. There is currently an active search for the Saturday evening Country Dinner Dance. Dennis will be in contact with KSRA about the specifics of holding the rodeo school. More details to follow
Equality Fest 2017 – Neither the Clearfield Fair grounds nor the Dubois City Park are available for the date of June 11, 2017. It was suggested we search alternative venues, which I am doing, or we change the date. Brandon Parsons has submitted interest in performing for Equality Fest. To date, no other performers contacted have gotten back to us, but that search will continue. Mike was unavailable for this meeting, but Shannon Beavers has contacted the Hyde Fire Hall, and we are welcome to do drag shows at their facility, rental cost was minimal, so it is an alternative for Clearfield area.
Teen Center – Progress is coming, the Teen center should be up and running within two months. More details to follow.
It has been suggested that the LGBTQ community begin hosting “netflix and chill” events, game nights, bowling nights, skate nights, etc. Discussion on this issue will continue.
