Let us introduce the new Board of Directors of the GLBA, for 2009.  Nominations were held at our recent AGM, and we have some great new directors on board.

This week’s special talk will be about “Facebook and social marketing using the Internet”. Your membership committee of Brian Street, Ed Lee and Ryan Mckinley will be presenting valuable information on the effective use of Facebook and Twitter. Do you know how to best utilize these newest tools? We all need more than just a website these days. Invite some guests who you think might also benefit from this talk.

 The GLBA is now on Twitter (we are so tech-savvy)!

We would like to thank everyone who came out to support the LOUD scholarship event on May 28.  It was a HUGE success!  The signature drink of the evening, the LOUD-tini, was a big hit, and $1 of every drink went to support the LOUD foundation.

We received great coverage of the event by PINQ: Vancouver's Essential Gay Intelligence, as well as from XtraWest.  For photos of the event, click here.
