Region 3 Interpride Conference
Mar 9-11, Radisson Hotel Dallas, Mockingbird
Lane at Harry Hines Blvd., Dallas. InterPride is the
International Association of Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and
Transgender Pride Coordinators. The purpose of InterPride
is to build and develop Pride organizations around the
world. In addition to organizations that produce annual
Pride events, we are also inviting other groups within
the lesbian and gay community that focus on one or more
annual events. On Sunday afternoon, there will be a media
workshop for all GLBT organizations. The workshop will
cover topics including working with broadcast and print
media, how to make sure that your message is clearly
expressed, and how to get that message to your target
audience. www.razzledazzledallas.org/IP3RegInfo.htm
