We loved seeing so many turn out for Milk + Cookie We loved seeing so many turn out for Milk + Cookies at Unicorn Bar on Sunday, November 30 - a good Ol’ Fashioned Sunday afternoon Tea Dance with DJ Gadget, Santa and his naughty elves! 

From the looks of things a lot of you were on his naughty list this year. 🎅🏽

Talk about a great way to get holiday spirit(s) flowing before we all went over to see Jinkx and DeLa’s Holiday Show at UPAC immediately there after!

Dress Up (Or Down) + Raise Funds For Queer Youth t Dress Up (Or Down) + Raise Funds For Queer Youth this weekend at the 2nd Annual Jingle Bell Dash! 

🗓️ Saturday, December 6th
⏱️9:30am
📍300 Wall Street, Kingston 
✅ Register to Dash or Donate at biggayhudsonvalley.com

The Jingle Bell Dash kicks off at 9:30am; but many will be gathering at The Hotel Kinsley for a special pre-Dash Happy Hour stating at 8:30am. 

The Jingle Bell Dash is a collaboration between Big Gay Hudson Valley and the Hudson Valley LGBTQ Community Center and raises much needed funds for the youth programs of the Center. 

Please consider using this opportunity to make a donation to Big Gay Hudson Valley’s Jingle Bell Dash team - or any of the other teams now. This includes the teams representing the Keegan Army, the Ho Ho Homos and others!

The dash is easy and FUN! It’s just 6 blocks around Uptown Kingston’s Stockade neighborhood and anyone can do it by either running, trotting, rolling or walking.

As of right now, we’ve got more than two dozen Dashers registered and we’d love to have you join us as a Dasher this Saturday morning. Individual registration is $30 with $15 and $10 options also available via link in profile. 

While it may be chilly - we’re going to have a great time! If you’d rather not be an actual Dasher in the event, you can also cheer from the sidewalks while sipping something warm. 

We hope to see you this Saturday in Kingston for the Jingle Bell Dash!
