THANK YOU to Friends of Gay Games

Dear Friends of Gay Games,

Thank you!

As the year-end approaches, we wanted to take a moment to express our appreciation to you for your ongoing support and presence.

As a loyal supporter of the Gay Games, we appreciate your accomplishments of the past twelve months, and we wanted to express how truly grateful we are to each of you for your continued support of FGG and the Gay Games. As described in the attached 2009 FGG Board Annual report, the quality and quantity of work that you all have completed is truly remarkable.

With your collaboration and support, we commit to continuing to do our utmost to promote the Gay Games and to providing practical benefits and services to each of you and your organisations. As always, your feedback and comments are very welcome.

We are especially grateful to the massive efforts and dedication of our Games Cologne colleagues, who are working day and night for Gay Games VIII. Thanks to their non-stop work around the world, registrations have exceeded projections and we are on target for a fantastic week in Cologne next year. We look forward to seeing you all there.

In the meantime, we hope you will take advantage of the cornucopia of FGG resources available:

• Browse the Gay Games resources at www.games-cologne.com & www.gaygames.org
• Check out the Gay Games blog (gaygamesblog.blogspot.com) and Facebook page
• Connect with your LGBT sports and culture colleagues via the FGG Intranet
• Review information communicated via newsletters and regular committee meetings

Please accept our best wishes for health, happiness, and continued success.

Thanks, again, for your continued support and encouragement.

Emy Ritt and Kurt Dahl
