A group of LGBT folk working at camps met at the Mid-States conference last month. The Kindred Meeting went over 2 hours and could have gone longer if the clean up crew from the hotel hadn't been lingering outside.
One of the things that came from the meeting was the creation of a Yahoo Group, Rainbow Lake, for LGBT people working at camps.
The group discussed it via email and we'd like to invite others to join us. Here is the link:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/rainbowlake/ The group is described as: "A safe place for GLBT folk, and their allies, working at youth camps to provide support and community for one another."
It operates with these Community Norms...
1. Any slanderous or hostile messages will result in your membership being revoked.
2. Please keep the discussion and information on members of this group confidential.
3. Please be open minded to the fair opinions of others.
4. Please respect the privacy of others and do not force them to reveal or share more than they are comfortable with, including name or location.
If this sounds interesting or valuable to you, please join us!
Look forward to talking with more of you soon.
