Want to wear red and walk with AIDS Saskatoon in the Saskatoon Pride Parade? We'd love a few more hands to help hand out condoms and candy, or help blow up balloons for a giant balloon red ribbon. Email Megan and she'll give you details!

It's at 38-5th Street East, one block off Broadway on 5th St. East. 9am-2pm. 500+ books, 1000+ magazines, household items galore, puzzles, Disney and Barbie stuff, plastic gas cans, ironing boards, furniture and more -- wow!

Relatedly, we're still in need of a few odds and ends for the new office, particularly ceramic coffee cups and travel-size/hotel toiletries.
5. Join our Landscaping Team
Pssst! Do you like to play in the dirt? We're assembling a crack team of gardeners to defeat dandelions permanently by xeriscaping our backyard (i.e. replacing "grass" with a low-maintenence alternative.) Email Megan if you'd like to join the planning crew.
Thanks everyone! Have a great Pride/Garage Sailing weekend, and tune in next week for the winners of the FLY ME AWAY! Raffle, as well as to meet our new Board of Directors.
