Primetimers of DC Day Trip to Winterthur

Primetimers of DC is planning a day trip to Winterthur Museum & Country Estate on Saturday, July 19th, 2008.

Primetimers of DC is a social organization for older gay and bisexual men and their admirers. It is a catalyst for bringing together men for social and recreational activities.

Winterthur is the former home of Henry Francis du Pont (1880-1969), an avid antiques collector and horticulturist. A visit to Winterthur will immerse you in another time and place. Rediscover America's heritage through its unparalleled collections of antiques and Americana. Wander through the breathtaking beauty of the 60-acre naturalistic gardens.

The day-trip features a private group tour of Winterthur, cocktails at Quest Sports Bar, and Dinner at Eastern House Restaurant. For additional information, visit the Primetimers website.

Day Training on LGBT Senior Issues

The DC Center Elder Think Tanks will host a training on GLBT Senior Issues on Thursday May 8th. The training will take place from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM, with an hour lunch break at noon.

Our featured presenter will be Karen Taylor, Director of Advocacy and Training for SAGE. SAGE is an organization based in New York City that provides Services, and Advocacy for gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender elders.

Karen will help prepare us to do our own trainings on GLBT Senior issues here in Washington, DC, and to think strategically about how we can best support GLBT Seniors in our community. There is no cost for this training, but because this is a 'Train the Trainer' event, we are looking for folks who can assist us in doing GLBT Senior trainings here in DC. So if you are interested in helping, this is a great place to start.

If you would like to attend, please contact Annie Shaw or call The DC Center at 202 682-2245.
