Members of Yolo PFLAG worked at a booth at Sacramento's Gay Pride event, and marched with the PFLAG contingent at the Gay Pride Parade in San Francisco in June.

Over 40 people were in attendance at our March meeeting (Christianity and Homosexuality). A lively discussion ensued over interpretation of biblical passages and the place of homosexuality in organized religion in the 21st century. It was speculated that this may be the issue which divides protestant religions in the year 2000.

The January meeting centered on Hate Crimes. A Representative from the District Attorney's office, and Public Defender's office, as well as police officers from Woodland and Davis were on hand to discuss the issue of hate crimes against the g/l/b/t community, discussing the issues of reporting, enforcement, prosecution and defense. There was a larger than usual turnout and the discussion was lively and informative.

Yolo County P-FLAG hosted its first-ever gathering of gay alumni of Woodland High School on November 28. Some 60 alums and signifcant others, some dating from the 1960s, attended. Everyone had such a good time they decided to try it again next year. Call 530 662-8970 or e-mail bettyhorn@aol.com or YoloPFLAG@aol.com if you'd like to be on the notification list.
