** '''Past Events'''
*** '''Movie Night''' in August, ''Three Thousand Years of Longing'', 12 people attended. Attendance suggests people are more interested in watching movies in theaters vs. someone’s home. Question: Is it obvious who OutWorlders are at the theater? No - Brandon was wearing his shirt, but nothing else showed people. After the movie, people stuck around for 10-15 minutes to discuss the movie, then disbanded. Brandon expresses interest in an OutWorlders hat.
*** '''Game Day''' in August, 23 people attended. Brandon noticed a lot of new people, more women. No problems, but another event was scheduled with Stonewall Sports that weekend. Most people started to leave around 6:00. Robert wants to continue to try 1-7 a few more times to see
*** '''OutReaders''': Five people attended, one new.
** '''Upcoming Events''':
*** '''Out@theMovies''' will be watching ''Vesper'' in theaters in September, date and time will be announced when tickets are available (September 30 release date).
