Who says, that dreams, for a positive future, can't come true? To all of you, from Tyona & Cheryl, of NW Indiana Rainbow Days, thank you, for the support, encouragement, cheers and the bravery.

           Our own Community Center

           In trying to make a Community Center the ultimate goal for all LGBT's in NW Indiana and the surrounding areas, it is vital to make sure you provide the needed materials. We are in the process of gathering materials. The following materials, are what we, at NW Indiana Rainbow Days, are immediately working to get:

      1). Books - covering and geared toward the gay communityl

      2). Board Games  of all Kinds

      3). DVD's - Movies, instructional video's, kid's movies,

      4). Book shelves -small, medium & large

      5). Card Tables, with 4 chairs each

                           ..........................just to name a few.

         This is certainly the ultimate goal. This project will be a great undertaking, one that NW Indiana Rainbow Days, along with support from the community, will no doubt accomplish.
