Come and join the Charlotte Black Gay PRIDE Board as we officially kick-off PRIDE week with our annual Town Hall Meeting. Our 2013 Theme is G.R.O.W. U.P.. The moderator is none other than City Councilwoman, LaWana Mayfield. Between 6:30 and 7:30 p.m., we will have an open discussion concerning an important community issue. The importance of this platform is to allow discussion of issues, ideas, and topics that affect us all. More Details to follow.
Immediately following our Town Hall, our social hour will begin. From 7:45 until 8:45 p.m., we will host 3 social events simultaneously:
For the singles, we will have a Speed Dating event by the stage. Men and women will will be divided into 2 groups, with Nikki Eason hosting the ladies group, and Kenney Taylor hosting the men's group. You don't want to miss this opportunity to chat and meet new friends and maybe more :)! *
For the couples, we will have a Game Show themed event in the sofa lounge area. This is your chance to competitively find out how much your partner really knows about you! Both of you will be asked 3 questions, each worth 5 points. At the end of the hour, the couple with the highest total wins a"Love Basket". In the event of a tie, there will be a Tie Breaker fast response question!*
Now, if active participation in these types of events isn't for you, or you would love to just watch, we welcome you to stay and relax in our bar area which overlooks the sofa lounge. There will be music, refreshments and a cash bar located there to help you unwind.
More details about the Town Hall and social event will be located on www.charlotteblackgaypride.com in the coming weeks.
In the meantime, we welcome you to register NOW for either the Speed Dating event or the Couples Event. Early Registration ends July 1st, and all participants that complete this process will be entered into a giftcard drawing that will occur that evening. You may register by sending an email to gwen@cbgp.org.
We look forward to seeing you there!
