Queers in the Park January 2020!

Let’s warm up this Sunday with some tea or coffee and play some board games! Let’s settle into this new year and reconnect with each other!

Anything you’re looking forward to this year that you want to tell us about?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is a queer meet up group!

This event is being put on by some local queers who want to connect, gather, network, celebrate, and build in a SAFE SPACE.

Here are a few SAFE SPACE guidelines we borrowed from our fellow queers that we think would be good for our events.

– Consent for touching.
– Don’t assume, we respect each other by trying not to assume anything about anyone’s identity, gender or otherwise. Ask about pronouns when you first meet someone.
– Oops/ Ouch: if someone says something you find hurtful, you can say “ouch.” They then say “oops” and we all work it out, either during or after the event.
– Use “I” statements rather than “you” or “we”, and preface generalizations with “In my lived experience…” in order to refrain from marginalizing or offending others.
