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 />

night February 25th........<br />

Launching a collaboration of partners to serve the LGBTQ community<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 />

BATTER UP!<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 />

are a wonderful group of players Baseball Baseball I mean.............. to find out<br />
