On Tuesday, March 11th the Mack Mixer held their monthly Fort Lauderdale networker at the beautiful Atlantic Hotel. As always, the mixer was packed! Wednesday night, Solare Coliseum presented their first annual Miss Coliseum Classic and Plus pageants. With 5 contestants in each pageant the well-deserved winners were Lady Charisse (Classic) and Olga Dantelly (plus). The Pride Center at Equality Park presented their 2nd annual Tropical Plant Fair this past weekend to a great crowd. It grew so much since last year I can’t even imagine how busy next year will be.
On Sunday there were many events. The day started with the gay softball league (SFAAA) having their opening week games…yum, guys in uniform. At the same time the Impulse group presented a Pool Party at The Palm Plaza Guest house…even yummier, guys out of clothes…hehe! Later that night Equality Florida presented their annual Miami Gala at the Perez Art Museum. The Voice of Equality Honorees this year were Multiple Emmy and Golden Globe winner, and longtime advocate for the LGBT community, Sharon Gless (who Nadine Smith, Chief Executive Officer of EQFL admitted she had a crush on growing up) and the six courageous couples who joined Equality Florida to sue the state of Florida for the right to marry. Once again Nadine was Eloquent and delivered a wonderful State of the State speech. I always look forward to Nadine speeches and always feel optimistic and pumped up when she is finished. Let’s go Florida!
