Dave's Summer Roundup: THE C&W LBGT party of the year, y'all are invited out to the Charlie Horse Ranch for an afternoon of socializing and BBQ. This is a potluck (bring food to share) and BYOB. Dave's is a short walk from a river dip if that is to your taste. Be sure to hang for the evening barn dance and overnight camping.

Lyle's Trails End Roundup: Join us for the second big LGBQ barn dance of the year out at Farmer Lyle's Trails End Round-up in Forest Grove, a long-running social opportunity in service to our community. This is a potluck (bring food to share) and BYOB. Always fun with chow served from a real chuck wagon, movies projected on a real prairie schooner wagon, bon fire, twilight hay rides and of course, dancing.

Call: 503-455-7077
a phone number has been set up where queer folks can text or call to have a Radio Cab ordered and paid for in the Portland area. to donate, send money to the cash app $saferidepdx. Once we have enough money to sustain the line for at least a few nights, I'll post the number and it will go live.
if you don't already know, there have been 9 assaults and counting in the Portland area targeting queer and trans people, particularly femmes. the attacks have targeted people who are on foot or bicycle in the city, making it important for queer folks to have safe alternatives to walking/riding/public transit.
