MEMBER NEWS Jan Zobel, EA, competed in the recent Gay Games in Sydney in the Novice Mountain Biking event and earned a Gold Medal! She relates that the five mile race was very hard, from biking through sand to trying not to swallow the flies that accompanied the riders all through the race! Still, she says it was a once in a lifetime opportunity and she especially enjoyed being out and about Sydney and having the opportunity to chat informally with lesbians and gay men from all over the world who were there for the games. Gay Games Sydney attracted 11,000 participants and about 40,000 people over all. Jan was part of the 500-athlete strong Team San Francisco. The Alliance can be proud of Jan's participation in this world class event! New Alliance member Berkeley Repertory Theatre encourages Alliance members to check out their night/OUT series, which helps create a forum for members of the Bay Area LGBT community to see Tony Award-winning theatre and to meet others who love the arts. Upcoming night/OUT events: February 13 for "Suddenly Last Summer" by Tennessee Williams, directed by Les Waters; March 6 for the World Premiere of "Fräulein Else," adapted by Francesca Faridany from the novella by Arthur Schnitzler, directed by Stephen Wadsworth. For these events, the price of the ticket includes a fabulous post-show party featuring complimentary food, wine, beer and other beverages. For more information, call Berkeley Rep at 510.647.2949 and ask about night/OUT or check their website at www.berkeleyrep.org. Come hear A.B. Priceman & June McGinnis, realtors with Security Pacific Real Estate, when they present a free workshop (with Catherine Tripp, loan broker with Fiquest Mortgage) called "The Homebuying Process" on March 19th, 2003, 7:30pm, at Boadecia's Books. Boadecia's is located at 398 Colusa Ave., in Kensington/North Berkeley. Call A.B. and June at 510.662.8529 for information about this event; call Boadecia's at 510.559.9184 for directions to the event.
