PrimeTimers of Sacramento produced a bridge building event with the 3 major gay men’s meetup groups. Saturday July 27th at McKinley Park. Great location with 10 large tables 2 large BBQ stations. Permit was $70 and cost to produce the event about another $250. All underwritten by the Sacramento chapter. 55 gay men RSVPed. Dr. Bob Vizzard (President Sacramento chapter) and Ray Rusconi were our BBQ pit masters. Tons of positive comments. Good advertising for us and Sacramento meetup groups (Gay Guys Doing Stuff) – (Active Mature Gay Men) and (Sacramento Gay Men’s Brunch).
We took the lead by contacting the organizers of each group and everyone said yes to the event. We could not have attracted 55 guys without each meetup group posting the picnic on their sites.
Building Bridges!!
