Queer Volleyball We are a recreational volleyball league, playing for fun and exercise each Tuesday night from 7:30 to 9:30 in Gym 3 at Loyalist Collegiate Vocational Institute (LCVI). All queers and our allies are welcome, all you need to bring are proper indoor gym shoes and your sports beverage of choice. We're dropping the price a bit this year, to $3.00 per night, or $30 per session (Sep - Jan, or Feb - Jun). There are at least 16 nights planned per session, so buying the session pass will save you $18 if you come every night! LCVI is located at the corner of Bath Road and Sir John A Macdonald Blvd in Kingston, although drivers will have to head south on Sir John A, turning right onto MacPherson, then right again onto Van Order Drive to get there. Use the parking lot on the south side of the school, head in through the double-doors next to the auditorium, and head straight down the hall to the opposite (north) end of the building. Gym 3 is the last room on the left. There are locker rooms for both sexes available. If you have any questions at all, whether for directions, arranging transportation, or a bit more motivation, please just let me know. See you there! Donald 613-539-5876 |

National Day Against Homophobia Given that we can legally marry, and are protected from workplace discrimination you'd think that homophobia would be a thing of the past. Unfortunately it isn't - in fact, it's becoming more and more subtle. May 17 marks the day the World Health Organisation removed homosexuality from its list of mental illnesses. The National Day Against Homophobia is an annual event and is designed to raise people's awareness of homophobia's harmful effects, to provide a positive image of homosexuality and sexual diversity, and to combat exclusion. For more information about how you can take part, please visit www.homophobiaday.org. |
