AIDS Walk

 

Volunteers and Donations Needed for AIDS Walk 2019

On September 21, the CAMP Rehoboth Rainbow Walkers Team will again participate in AIDS Walk Delaware.

There are three ways to help. Sign up to be a volunteer for the event, be a walker, and/or support one of the teams by making a donation. Please join the CAMP Rehoboth Rainbow Walkers team, volunteer, or make a donation to help the team reach its fundraising goal. Sign up as a volunteer or to participate in the walk. ▼

Bachelor Auction

Sold to the Bidder Across the Street

Bidding at this year’s CAMP Rehoboth Bachelor Auction at Aqua was so exciting it had bidders from the balcony of The Pines on the other side of Baltimore Avenue. CAMP Rehoboth (and Sundance) auctioneer Lorne Crawford, with help from Fancie P. Charmington and Bachelor Auction boss Chris Beagle, kept the crowd under control—for the most part—and a good time was had by all. CAMP Rehoboth says thank you to all the bachelors and to the restaurants who contributed gift certificates. Photo by Tony Burns. From left: Justin Smarte, Jake Brown, Katie Lyell, Terrell Jones, A.J. Hemphill, Paulette Lanza, Alex Souders, Wesley Ogden, Josh Pocock, Sean Sheehan, Nick Leffler, and Zack Ellis. ▼

Olivia Riverboat

Travels with Letters

Olivia Riverboat Cruise from Paris to Normandy

Rehoboth’s Margie Ripalda, Laurie Schneider, Fay Jacobs, Linda Kemp, Bonnie Quesenberry, and Kate McQueen.

Dear Editor:

In a recent Wesley Combs article, he said that Sarah McBride would be the first openly transgender person to win a state senator position in America if she wins. Maybe he’s just talking about state senators vs. state delegates? Perhaps something could be said that there are state delegates in other states, because I got the impression that Sarah was the only state legislator from his statement. And I think we want to make people aware of all the good changes that are coming about, right?

Since I live in Virginia, I know that Danica Roem was elected in 2017 as a Virginia State Delegate. I don’t know if other states also have transgender delegates, but Virginia certainly does, and we’re very proud of her.

I’ve never written a letter to the editor before, so thanks for listening.

– Holly Schneider
