Summer 2008
ABOUT PRIDE…
As we embark on the summer season and celebrations turn to pride events across the country the owners and staff of WOOF’S want to take a moment to say Thank You for making our first 129 days in operation (yes, that’s all it’s been) a success! We are proud to offer Madison’s LGBT community an alternative experience. In these past months we’ve heard many comments and expressions of gratitude, taken many suggestions and responded with honesty, dignity and pride. We have been proud to sponsor sporting teams and events including bowling, volleyball, softball, rugby and bicycling. We have sponsored numerous charity events that have raised thousands of dollars to help in the fight against cancer, HIV/AIDS, and numerous other worthy causes. We have mourned the loss of members of our community and have tried to remember their causes in responding with respect and integrity to the charities of their choice. We have welcomed everyone to our establishment and have met many wonderful people, enjoyed what we hope will be years of friendship, camaraderie and community and done so with laughter, celebration and joy. As we look forward to marches, picnics and pride fests it is with honor that we stand as members of a community that embraces the diversity and differences of each and every one of us, that respects each individuals choices and beliefs and collectively experiences life as a celebration.
