It was wonderful to see you at PrideFest and to hear the news of the center opening! Is there going to be an open house? I think it would be very cool if some of the Gateway Business Guild people could come out and get a first-hand experience of what you've been working for.

I signed up for the mailing list, so I shouldn't miss any more of the good stuff.
