Centaur Celebrates 10 Years of Pride It is truly an exciting month for Centaur as they celebrate 10 fantastic years of Gay Pride with a new Pride CD that carries on the annual tradition of fun filled classics, all infused with a dance vibe and endless energy. The newest mix features 12 songs that will take you on a journey through time, criss-crossing genres and eras with familiar lyrics and melodies, while offering a new perspective on songs that we know and love. Party Groove: Pride 07 has arrived just in time for summer and will be in stores nationwide on June 26. "Centaur's Pride CD series is the longest running annual series in our catalog," says Centaur's Jamie Baxter. "The great tradition was started with Dj Julian Marsh in 1998 and it is now in the loving and caring hands of Dj Max Rodriguez, who shares our vision to make the CD fun and to put a smile on the face of many." Rodriguez calls New York's Chelsea establishment Splash Bar (SBNY) his Dj home base, where he has held residency since it opened in 1991. Since arriving in the city from his native New Orleans, Rodriguez has been the featured Dj at New York City Pride several times, played at legendary nightclubs includingPalladium, Limelight and Roxy, and he has also been a musicalconsultant for the VH1 Fashion and Music Awards. Party Groove: Pride 07 once again offers plenty for everyone, providing updated dance remixes of some of the biggest songs to come from Cher, Shania Twain, Laura Branigan, Bonnie Tyler, Sister Sledge and Alphaville. Also included are new mixes of past Billboard #1 hits "Above The Clouds" by Amber and "Stand Up," as well as Thelma Houston's Grammy Award winning song "Don't Leave Me This Way." Party Groove: Pride 07 is available in stores nationwide, and online at centaurmusic.com where visitors can listen to samples of every track on the album. Blue Moon Bachelor Auction Sets Record Fourteen bachelors, some eligible and some not so, took the stage at the annual Blue Moon Bachelor Auction, Saturday, June 16 to raise $20,400 in support of Love 2007, a benefit for CAMP Rehoboth and the Sussex County AIDS Council. With Miss Richfield 1981 serving as auctioneerassisted by Mona Lottsthe crowd grew more and more generous as the evening progressed. The high bidders were treated to dinner with the bachelors at either the Blue Moon, Eden, or Aqua. A special highlight was Blue Moon Chef Lion Gardner's turn on the auction block where the winner received dinner for six prepared by Lion at their home. We're pretty sure that Lion's wife Meghan will be there to lend a hand. Pictured: Josh Love (left) and Sterling Townsend with Miss Richfield.

CAMP Golf Classic Scores a Hole-In-One While no hole-in-one was literally scored, the participants, volunteers, and beneficiaries of the second annual CAMP Rehoboth Golf Classic on June 22 left the event feeling as good as if they had scored one. The weather was picture perfect, the course bright and green, the food delicious, and the fun non-stop. Pictured are the first place team of Wendy Bunce, Sara Cavendish, Jill Masterman and Tammy Jackson. Photos of the second and third place teams are in CAMPshots. New Technology Is Feature of Lewes Photography Show The Packard Reath Gallery's summer show will highlight the new and original photography of Philadelphia artist Ron Tarver. The World in a Grain of Sand opens on Saturday, June 30th with a reception for the artist from 5 to 7 p.m. The show will remain on view until July 27th. The public is cordially invited to attend the opening reception. With minimal digital manipulation, Tarver produces images that harken back to photograms, as he creates uncharted universes from tiny found objects. He also uses very small lights to illuminate the objects, creating a sense of depth. The Packard Reath Gallery is located at 109 West Market Street in Lewes, DE (above Caf Azafran).
