The Rehoboth Beach Credit Card program has
raised more than $6,400 benefiting the Rehoboth Beach community through
CAMP Rehoboth, the Delaware Center for Inland Bays, and Rehoboth Beach
Main Street.
Atlantic Horizons has
made a total of 6 royalty disbursements for the Rehoboth Card program and
the dollar amount donated has increased with every one. In order for this
positive trend to continue, we still need your help!
Encourage those who care
about CAMP Rehoboth, and Rehoboth Beach in general, to apply for the card.
Make sure all CAMP supporters are aware that each time they use the card,
donations are made that directly benefit CAMP! Active involvement will
ensure that the dollar amount donated each quarter will continue to
increase.
We have enjoyed creating
this program for Rehoboth Beach and we are happy to have CAMP Rehoboth as
a beneficiary. We look forward to continuing our support for your
wonderful organization.

On behalf of the Rehoboth
Beach Film Society, I wanted to thank you for providing our organization
the opportunity to set-up a booth at the Women’s Project Conference. As
you may have heard, we raised $102 from raffle ticket sales, registered a
new $450 membership and renewed a $100 membership.
I also want to commend
your efforts and all those involved in sponsoring such a great event. Both
evening performances and the keynote speaker were wonderful. I didn’t
attend the workshops but I heard a lot of positive comments. I also
witnessed women demonstrating their newly learned dance steps after the
conference. The Swing Dance workshop will probably help reduce the
incidence of bruised toes for quite a while!
Please pass on my words
of appreciation to all those who gave so much of themselves to produce
this superb conference. The women’s community is fortunate to have such
a capable and committed group of people working on their behalf.
Once again, please accept
my appreciation for assisting our efforts to get the word out about the
Rehoboth Beach Film Society.

Development Director
The Third Annual CAMP
Rehoboth Women’s Project Conference weekend was fantastic, so thanks to
all the women on the Executive committee and behind the scenes who spent
endless hours in the planning and executing of those events. Your efforts
were totally appreciated.
We had a memorable time
from the opening show to the closing concert. Suzanne Westenhoefer was a
laugh-a-minute. We had seen her before, but she outdid herself in this
venue, and it showed in the audience’s reaction. The conference, itself,
gave us a chance to meet and interact with the women’s community, as
well as to learn and to enjoy ourselves.
The guest speaker made us
realize that we do need to connect with a community. The workshop sessions
were informative and well presented, but the swing dance was so much fun.
For us, the events ended with the concert by Barbara Higbie and Teresa
Trull. Never having seen them before in concert, they made us fans for
life. They played and sang their hearts out. What a fantastic ending to a
wonderful weekend!
To all of you who put
together this weekend, take a bow, and know that the two of us are
genuinely thankful for all of your hard work.
Start planning the Fourth
Annual Conference now, because we have the gas in the car and our bags
packed.

I’m writing to thank
CAMP—and especially Maggie, Andrea, and the conference committee—for
another GREAT Women’s Conference! Mary LoVerde was a fantastic choice
for our keynote speaker. What a way to start a weekend and spend an early
Saturday morning.
Thanks for all the time,
hard work, and planning that went into the whole weekend. From the vendor
tables to the Saturday workshops to the kick-ass entertainment, this
year’s event was the best yet! I’m already looking forward to next
year.

As a resident of the
District of Columbia and a summer resident of Rehoboth I was glad to see
Peter Rosenstein’s article on the District’s promotion of GLBT
tourists and growth.
We have seen our land
values soar and social acceptance increase as our east coast becomes more
inclined to welcome diversity. I applaud Letters and Mr. Rosenstein for
their foresight.
I think we need to look
beyond our shores to keep Rehoboth sound and prosperous. We are a
wonderful mix of east coast cities and I hope remain so.

A letter opposing HB99
written by Kenneth Weinig, Headmaster of Independence School in Newark,
appeared in the Community News, which publishes a bunch of neighborhood
newspapers, in Hockessin, Brandywine, New Castle, etc. This letter
appeared in all editions.
Among other things, the
letter said if HB99 passes, “Pedophiles (often a type of homosexuality)
would have the right to work in daycare centers.”
The Community News has
invited responses and has published a couple of letters, including at
least one that agrees with Mr. Weinig.
You can find the text at
www.communitypub.com. Write to: Editor, P.O. Box 549, Hockessin, DE 19707.
This man is harmful to
the children in his care, particularly to those students at Independence
who may be questioning their own sexuality.
