Thank you! Danke! Muchas gracias!
On behalf of the LGBT Resource Center for the Seven Rivers Region, I would like to extend appreciation to the many volunteers that have shared their time and talents for the betterment of the Center. One day this Summer we had 18 different volunteers working at the Kickapoo Country Fair and a Brat Barn-both efforts helped raise needed funds for the Center. Read more here.

Thanks for Pride 2009
I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of the PrideFest volunteers for their time and hard work. The Pride Committee and all of the people who attended PrideFest this year could not have had such a wonderful day without your help! We look forward to working with you for another successful event next year! From Pride Committee member, Johnnie Schmeckpeper
