Newsletter 11: Hello + recruitment, regatta, and pride, pride, pride

Hello.

So you may have been reading OUTNT for a while now, or just a little bit. The parent of this unruly child is currently the single parent Rainbow Territory. But being a queer family, Rainbow Territory would like to take on more partners, occasional flirts, long term lovers, and friendships. This is a call out for for more members of Rainbow Territory and volunteers and contributors to OUTNT.

OUT NT’s purpose is to connect the community to information, resources, and one another. Rainbow Territory sees this as an essential part of changing the Territory for the better. Want to see more queers in the NT from young to old? Want to work together to achieve change? Connecting with each other is the first step. OUT NT a way to reach out to your community. But first it needs to grow.

So Rainbow Territory needs help from doers who are interested in writing, creating, marketing, organising and building. If you want to be involved, please email outnt@outnt.info Skype and email will be the primary tool for communicating with each other, so location is no barrier to getting involved (so long as you’ve got some internet).

Rainbow Territory is also looking for more members. Getting involved means working towards law and policy reform in the NT, and supporting and developing community building initiatives like OUTNT. It also means you can shape Rainbow Territory’s future work and meet other awesome community members. Getting active is the key. Please email Rainbow Territory to get involved.

This weekend is the beer can regatta, so you can also meet the crew from Rainbow Territory if you are in Darwin this Sunday. It’s happening from 10am, so come on down!
