National Coming Out Day (October 11th) is fast approaching, and my college's TINY (three students, me included, and two faculty advisors) Gay/Straight Alliance-type group (we are Q-FLAG- Queens Friends of Lesbians and Gays) is trying to figure out what we can do to not only celebrate it, but also try and raise awareness/recruit more members (so we can be an registered club!).
We are so small, we can't get any official money, but we've all agreed to chip in. So far, the best idea we've come up with is to make and distribute (on October 11th) rainbow ribbons for LBGT people to wear, and also royal blue (IS this National Coming Out Day's official color? Or just the Human Rights Campaign's?) ribbons for allies to wear.
I've been to the HRC's website and seen the theme for this year: "Talk About It!"- perhaps we might work that in somehow? Any and all ideas are appreciated!

I always find it interesting to list the name of famous LGBTs in the world. It makes us all think.
Good luck.

Try to see if y'all could speak in a class that deals with sexuality, psychology, etc.
Pass out flyers.
Schedule a meeting for that night.
And by all means, pass out the ribbons!

Is that Queens, New York? If so, go over to the gay baths off Northern Boulevard in Flushing. Have a great, gay, old time.
