On Saturday, October 17th, The National Gay and Lesbian Task Force will present the 2009 Eddy McIntyre Community Service Award to MDGLCC President Steve Adkins. Steve Adkins has been a major supporter and enabler of local LGBT organizations. He has played an important role in promoting LGBT-friendly businesses and educating local leaders about LGBT workplace issues. We invite you to join us as we recognize his contributions to the LGBT community at this 2009 Eddy McIntyre Community Service Award event.
The 2009 Eddy McIntyre Community Service Award event includes a dinner, which is an important fundraiser for the LGBT community. One-third of the proceeds from the Miami events dinner are donated to the Task Force. The LGBT Task Force played a major role in protecting Miami-Dade’s Human Rights Ordinance by contributing more financial and human resources than any other national organization. The remaining two-thirds of the Miami events proceeds will go to the Dade Community Foundation’s GLBT Community Projects Fund. In return, the Foundation presents grants to Miami-Dade LGBT service organizations including Youth Services, Pridelines, Switchboard of Miami and Miami Beach Gay Pride. Over the last four years, about $800,000 has been returned to the local community.

Get your tickets to enjoy the Miami Gay Men’s Chorus’ “LOOK: BACK, INWARD & FORWARD” at the Colony Theater on June 19th or 20th. In this concert the Miami Gay Men’s Chorus will celebrate their first decade of gay Miami events through performances of favorites from ABBA to Elton John directed by Anthony Cabrera. Following will be the premiere of Miami Gay Men’s Chorus’ Through a Glass, Darkly, a bold new choral performance that shows what you get when you combine the drama of contemporary relationships with a crystal methamphetamine addiction, a growing real-life problem in the community.
The music and lyrics, written by Michael Shaieb, combines club beats with brilliant solos and is closed with a powerful edge by the entire Miami Gay Men’s Chorus. On Friday, June 19th, the gay Miami events will be at 8:00PM. On Saturday, June 20th, there will be a show at 2:00PM and another at 8:00PM.

This past Saturday was Miami’s first Pride festival in honor of gays, lesbians, bisexuals and transgenders. Although Miami is known as being one of the world’s gay capitals, many say that Miami may have a lot of gay people but not a gay community. The last time that Miami attempted to host a Pride event was in 1998 at Bayfront Park. With only 4,000 attendees, the event was considered a failure.
Saturday, gay and straight couples rode proudly through the parade on Ocean Drive that stretched from 5th to 14th street. The parade featured floats with shirtless dancing men from Twist, cars and the Miami Gay Men’s Chorus singing Over the Rainbow. Rainbow pride flags were seen around every corner and in ever nook and cranny of the Pride festival. Miami Beach is hoping to once again become a top destination among gay tourists. The parade also featured Patti LaBelle and fashion designer Richie Rich.
