It feels like we've been holding our breath for almost two years to be able to send this email, and here it is.  I am thrilled to invite you to register and join COLAGE at Family Week in Provincetown!  Youth with LGBTQ parents ages 8-18 will have a life-changing experience in COLAGE programs, lead exclusively by adults who also have LGBTQ parents.  Registration is open and the staff and volunteers are busy preparing for what we know will be one of our best years ever - but only if you're there with us.  

 

This year's Family Week program highlights will include many of our favorite events, so mark your calendars!  Family Week begins on Saturday, July 28th and ends on Saturday August 4th.  Here are some events to look forward to:

 

Sunday July 29th, 7 pm: Kate Clinton for COLAGE at the Crown and Anchor

 

Wednesday August 1st, 5 pm:  COLAGE Major Donor Reception, location TBA

 

Thursday August 2nd, 4 pm:  COLAGE Teen Panel, Provincetown High School

 

Friday August 3rd, 3pm: COLAGE Show and Tell, Provincetown High School

 

Friday August 3rd, 8 pm: COLAGE Youth Dance, Provincetown Town Hall

 

Of course as we work on our jam-packed schedule, times, locations, and details may change and a complete schedule will be available before you arrive.  

 

Early bird registration rates are still current, so please register now to take advantage of that discount!  If you have not yet secured housing for Family Week, we recommend that you visit www.vrbo.com and www.weneedavacation.com to find rentals in the area.  Need a scholarship?  Complete this form and return it to elizabeth@colage.org by May 15th.

 

Whether 2012 will be your first Family Week or your tenth, we can't wait to share this powerful, moving, exciting week of programming with you and your family.  

 

Please visit our registration page to make a donation to offset the cost of participation for another family.  Every dollar raised makes it easier for another COLAGEr to share in this incredible week.  Enter your donation amount in the "Sponsor an Activist" line and we'll make sure it helps bring more families together with us at Family Week.

 

We can't wait to see you,
