Hike Mt. Tam with Sweet

Sweet  Jul 14

atc home header 470x133 Hike Mt. Tam with Sweet
Hike Mt. Tam with Sweet to Benefit Homeless Youth
Join TEAM SWEET on August 15 on the Hikefor Homeless Youth, a half-day climb up Mt. Tamalpais in support of At The Crossroads. We will be trekking up one of the Bay Area’s highest peaks and getting our friends to sponsor us to raise funds for ATC. All the money will go to support ATC’s work with young people on the streets of San Francisco.

At The Crossroads walks the streets of San Francisco, reaching out to homeless youth and young adults on their turf. They work with young people who others have given up on. In the last 10 years, ATC has worked with more than 5,000 youth, helping them build outstanding lives.

Sweet is all about making the world a better place. We love doing things to make our communities stronger, safer, and healthier.

That’s why we love At The Crossroads, and believe wholeheartedly in their mission. In May, 30 Sweeties volunteered 2 hours each at ATC prepping vital supply kits, organizing the clothing room and making cards. ATC’s clients deserve all of the support they can get. We want to do everything in our power to make that happen.

The hike starts from the Bootjack Picnic Area anytime between 8 and 10am. It should take 4-5 hours (you can choose to do a shorter route, and we also have a special “children’s loop” for families). Bring hiking boots, water bottle, sunglasses, hat and your sweet smile! ATC will provide T-shirts, lunch, snacks, first aid supplies, sunblock and bug repellent as well as that squishy happy feeling that comes from doing a good thing.

Register for the team.

Sweet FlawLesPoolParty Pool party, San Diego
FlawLes presents: “3-Feet Under”
THE San Diego Pride 2010 Pool Party
at The Ivy Rooftop of The Andaz Hotel
FlawLes Lesbian Lifestyle & Entertainment Media presents PRIDE Sunday Funday

FlawLes, San Diego’s Lesbian Lifestyle & Entertainment Media movement, in continuation with its proud tradition as the ‘IT’ pool party of San Diego Pride for lesbian and queer women, proudly announces the details of its 2010 event.

On Sunday, July 18, FlawLes will storm The Ivy Rooftop of Andaz San Diego (formerly the Ivy Hotel) to wrap up the weekend’s festivities with a splash of style. The Sunday Funday will accommodate guests kicked back in cabanas, wading in the blue waters, and dancing poolside ‘til the sun goes down at “3-feet Under.”

With a line-up of unprecedented talent, the party promises to impress with every splash as the sexy, sultry and soulful tandem of DJ Amara and DJ Baohaus team-up to wreck the decks as “Dirty Stilettos.” Live percussion will explode from the skins of “Rhythm in Stereo” as Josh Kane (drummer of Uh Huh Her and P!nk) takes to the kit.

Additional entertainment includes a fashion photoshoot, glam dancers and surprise performances.

TICKETS: Presale tickets are available online at FlawLes.com for the advanced purchase price of $20 with advanced fast-track entry. Tickets will also be sold at the door at full-price (credit cards accepted).

WHEN: Sunday, July 18, 2010 (Noon – 8pm)

WHERE: 600 F St. San Diego, CA 92101

The Andaz Hotel and Ivy Rooftop: Located in downtown’s historic Gaslamp Quarter, Andaz San Diego brims with the charm of a boutique hotel topped off by the swank, Ivy Rooftop, which accommodates the sexiest sights and sounds of the city. Now incorporated with the distinctions of Hyatt’s Andaz brand (West Hollywood, New York, London), The Ivy at Andaz reflects the vibrant yet relaxed spirit of the San Diego scene.

San Diego Pride is the fifth largest celebration in the United States attracting some 165,000 spectators to the Parade and up to 50,000 to the weekend Festival. Be there.

boom sf 470x352 BoomSF, San Francisco
While still basking in the afterglow of an amazing Kickoff Party, we want to make sure the next BoomSF Ladies’ Night, co-hosted by Sweet and Curve Magazine, is on your radar. It’s a weekly event after all!

BoomSF the place where the coolest women go to meet, mingle and play, as you could see for yourself if you were there at the Kickoff Party. It’s fine if you come by yourself, the angels will make sure you have a good time.

This time, Dr. Frankie from LittleGayBook will also set up a “star wall” so you can send secret messages to the woman across the room that keeps making eye contact.

We will also raffle off some cool prizes. Sweet is giving away a junior suite ocean view balcony room with jacuzzi tub for two during their trip to Cozumel, September 4-11, 2010. A week of decadence, dancing and dolphins at the gorgeous, all-you-can-eat-and-drink Cozumel Palace Resort. The whole resort is Sweet for a week. The value is $3,198.

We’ll also have giftbags from Babeland, gift certificates from LittleGayBook and Mooloolaba, and a few of those highly coveted BoomSF tanks. :-)

No need to buy raffle tickets. All you need to do is make sure your name is on the BoomSF mailinglist (go to www.boomsf.com to sign up) and show to BoomSF on July 22.

And of course, we’ll have tunes by DJ Stef and Orson is offering a special BoomSF menu.

See you at Orson!
