What is a T-Dance? T-Dances are a fun way to enjoy a Sunday afternoon at a GaYBOR member business while socializing and making new friends among GaYBOR members and supporters. Gaybor has held several of these social events over the past couple of months and we have averaged 100 people at each T-Dance. We always bring a DJ and this is a great chance to meet dozens and dozens of GaYBOR members while supporting one of our GaYBOR member businesses. Our T-Dances and Pub Crawls are a great companion to our meetings – at our monthly meetings we discuss GaYBOR activities, and at the T-Dances and Pub Crawls we socialize over cocktails.
If you want to learn more about GaYBOR and what we do, we invite you to attend one of our events and talk with the GaYBOR Board and the dozens of other supporters who attend our monthly events. As always, we invite EVERYONE to join us – no membership is ever required to attend our events. If you want to join GaYBOR or renew your membership, we can answer all your questions and help you become one of the latest GaYBOR members. Individual Memberships are $35 and Business Memberships are only $75.
Note – our meetings are always free; we request a $5 donation at the door for our T-Dance and the Pub Crawl is $20 (advance tickets available on our website www.GaYBOR.com or you can register at the start of the Pub Crawl).
