Bi float for Mardi Gras 2008

Hi all!

We need to get our asses into gear for Mardi Gras - we've had lots of great ideas talked about, but now is the time for DOING to start!!

We're going to be at the Marlborough Hotel on Sunday afternoon. If you're interested in the Mardi Gras float, please stop by at 4pm on the DOT, and we'll have a quick meeting, work out who is doing what, and then those who want to can hang around and snog the cute poly people as they arrive for the Poly Social.

If you can't make 4pm on Sunday, please email me in advance to let me know what sorts of things you are willing/able to do, and any suggestions you'd like to make, and I'll stand in for you at the meeting.

Thanks to all the people who have already told me they want to help - it's going to be a parTAY, I can tell you!! And it looks like the contingent from Victoria is going to be even larger, bolder, and sexier than last year (if such a thing is possible)!

Blow off your grandmother's birthday tea if you have to, and join us at 4 on Sunday!

Marlborough Hotel, upstairs, on the deck, outside off the pool room (not the side balcony off the bar - keep going until you find pool tables and then go outside from there).

See you there!

Come along and help out at our Fair Day Stall

Howdy all,

The year is ticking over pretty quickly and in just 11 days it's time for another Mardi Gras Fair Day - Sunday 17th Feb @ Victoria Park (next to Broadway).

This year Bi-NSW is reverting to having a stall of our own that we can use to distribute information to the crowds of people that have heard the word "bisexual" but haven't yet quite come to grips with what one is!!!

Seriously though, there are lots of people that don't know how to meet Bi folks so giving them the opportunity to have a chat and discover how many of us there are really puts a smile on their face.

To do this we need some people to be the welcoming faces during the course of the day. There's nothing onerous or technical about it so please have a think about volunteering. Generally we'd allocate you to between 1 & 2 hours of manning the stall along with at least one other person. I think the times will be from about 10:00am through to 5:00pm.

Send me an email - treasurer@bi-nsw.org.au - if you're interested.

If you can't do the volunteering thing, then at least drop by our stall on the day and say hello - particularly if you've not met any of us face to face before.

Regards,
Graham
Treasurer, Bi-NSW
