Out in Akron festival will return this October
by Mark Myers and Terry Bates
Akron-The board of the Akron Area Pride Collective has accepted an offer from the board of Out in Akron to become the official sponsor of the Out in Akron festival.
The board of the AAPC feels this to be an honor and it is the board's goal to pick up where the previous Out in Akron board stopped. The plan is to tackle the task at hand and offer an unforgettable weekend of events that will be entertaining and affirming.
The board of directors for the Akron Area Pride Collective immediately appointed an Out in Akron committee to plan and carry out the events of 2003. The committee will be under the direction of the collective.
The new Out in Akron committee has set the tentative date of October 11 and 12 for the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender Cultural Festival.
The AAPC board sincerely hopes that all supporters of past Out in Akron events will give it continued and valued support. The board of the AAPC and the OIA committee wish to extend their most sincere thanks for the community's continued support and encouragement.
For more information, call 330-253-2220 or log onto www.akronpridecenter.org.
Mark Myers is the chair of the Akron Area Pride Committee and Terry Bates chairs the Out in Akron committee.

Imagine if there were no Youngstown Pride Center
by Patrick Pacalo
Suppose somebody just coming out in Youngstown picked up a Gay People's Chronicle and there was no listing of an LGBT community center in the area.
Suppose there were no weekly LGBT support group meetings in Youngstown. Suppose the annual LGBT Halloween party and summer picnic were canceled.
Suppose the Pride Center newsletter stopped being an illuminator of LGBT issues in the Mahoning Valley.
Suppose instead of being a united LGBT community we were scattered in little clusters around the Valley with no focus.

Suppose the Pride Center board stopped meeting to plan for a better future for the LGBT community and to engage in such functions as grant writing.
All these things could happen without financial support for the Pride Center and without the help of volunteers.
The Youngstown Pride Center estimates that it needs $2,000 in the next 90 days to keep solvent for the next year. In addition, in order to be eligible to receive a $25,000 grant for which it has applied, $1,000 beyond normal budgetary needs must be raised on the center's own efforts. To help to meet these goals, please write a check for at least $25 (or whatever you can send). Contributions are fully tax-deductible.
The first $25 of your contribution (or $15 for students, over 50, and low-income folks) will purchase membership for one year, and for those already a member, the contribution will renew that membership as of the day the payment is received.
In return, the center will stay open and keep things happening for the Mahoning Valley LGBT community.
Donations enable the Pride Center to provide an LGBT social and support group on Wednesday evenings, as well as the Kaffee Klatsch, which will next meet at 7 pm on June 14 for an evening of women's poetry.
Please mail checks, made out to Pride Center of Greater Youngstown, to 1105 Elm Street, Youngstown, Ohio 44505.
For more information on the Youngstown Pride Center, please call 330747-7433 or log onto www.angelfire.com/ oh5/youngstownpride.
Patrick Pacalo is a founding member, trustee and chair of the grants committee of the Pride Center of Greater Youngstown.
