CANDI WRAPPERS, SOMETIMES GOOD THINGS FALL<br />
APART SO BETTER THINGS CAN FALL TOGETHER........<br />
“There comes a time in life, when you walk away from all the drama and<br />
people who create it. You surround yourself with people who make you laugh,<br />
forget the bad, and focus on the good. So, love the people who treat you right.<br />
Pray for the ones who don’t. Life is too short to be anything but happy. Falling<br />
down is part of LIFE…Getting back up is LIVING …..”<br />

Key LGBTQ resource providers and 2-1-1 San Diego have begun<br />
discussions about a community LGBTQ resource navigation line. This<br />
LGBTQ collaborative forum and work group will hold discussions over<br />
the next several months with the end goal being a line staffed by<br />
specialists who are not only knowledgeable of available resources, but<br />
are also keenly aware of the particular vulnerabilities and barriers to<br />
access that are so often faced by individuals and families within the<br />
LGBTQ community. This was a quote from Timothy Caudill “ I want<br />
to thank all of you that showed up last night again! Please post your<br />
pics from the night here. It turned out to be one really great night “<br />

THE TEAM’S TAKE THE FIELD:<br />
America’s Finest City Softball League (“AFCSL”) was formed in 1981 as a place<br />
for Gay Lesbian Bisexual Transgender people to come together and play<br />
softball. The league has 3 divisions for all skill levels and is open to ALL athletes,<br />
regardless of sexual orientation!<br />
To see all these people set aside there diversities and come together for some<br />
fun in the name of baseball is what this is all about. I have followed a few teams<br />
and had the honor of judging a turnabout show for the players which was called<br />
Hits,Runs,and Whores a softball Dragstavaganza, and I can say they do well in<br />
heels. On March 8th was open Day for the leagues at the Poway Sportsplex<br />
it was an amazing day as they rang in there 34th season and honoring one of<br />
there own Michael Petracca #33 for the San Diego Firestorm who was seriously<br />
injured at the Sin City Tournament in Las Vegas. I’m happy to report Mike is<br />
doing well and was at Opening Day, I asked Mike if he had anything to say to us<br />
and he replayed “ I’m feeling great and I thank the league for all the support<br />
and love “<br />
I do want to recognize a few of the other teams which I have followed,The Flicks<br />
Fireballs, Team Loft-B The Loft, The Hitmen of #1 on Fifth, However all the teams<br />
