Wanted: Greater Access to Womens' and "older' LBTQ entertainment in OLY

Submitted by bgomez on Fri, 05/02/2008 - 2:48pm.

Tonight Lily Tomlin comes to Olympia! When my daughter heard this, she wanted to know: "why? Is her career hurting? She used to be really good!" I defended Oly, but it started me thinking.

Wouldn't it be GREAT if we could organize a regular series of events that would appeal to "women of a certain age..." To my mind that's over 25. There's alot going on for those under.

I'm tired of driving to Portland, Tacoma or Seattle for good, political, indie, spoken word, music, what have you... I know these things come and go with local interest over the years... so what about it? Do we have any others out there?

Okay - maybe too late for now...

Looks like the rain beat me to the punch on this storm but I'm still looking for the info. Actually lets expand to all snow activities... snowshoeing and xcountry too! I love just playing in snow... where do you go here in Oly?

Oly newbie seeks O info

Before it starts raining... where can you go sledding around here? Not too steep just a nice long ride? Every place I know of ends in a road... not a good idea...
