In other OMP News: OMP has been invited to attended Black Hill's Pride Grant Celebration this Thursday, October 27th. Black Hill's Pride is a sponsor of OMP and it would be great if we had a good showing of OMP guys show up. Since the Grant Celebration conflicts with our normal core group meeting time, we are planning to meet up at UCAN an hour early at 5:00. We will then have our core group meeting for an hour or so and then head over to the celebration. OMP is an awesome group of gay, bi, trans and queer guys ages 18-29 working to strengthen Olympia's Queer Community.

OMP is carving pumpkins and having a potluck on Saturday, the 29th. We are meeting at 6:00 at UCAN. Bring food and a pumpkin. For more information about these activities or OMP in general, give us a call a call or an email.

Dirrections to sushi night

What better way to ease into conversation back sex and relationships than learning how to roll sushi?

Jim, who so nicely offered to let us use his house for the event, lives at 300 Kenyon Apt M3. But then there is the question on how to get there and were leaving that up to you. You can ether meet us at Jim's house or you can meet us at UCAN 6:30 to car pool together. Jim's place has limmited parking so you would have to park on the road before his complex. If these dirrections are not clear we suggest ether using map quest or calling us at UCAN.


Dirrections to Jim's House from UCAN:

Go west on Harrison until you come to Kenyon Street. Turn right on Kenyon. Go straight down the street untill you come to Olympic Hights. Once you are on Olympic Hights you take a right and drive down the drive way around the complex until you see building M. Jims apartment is m-3 and its on the bottom. Jim's number is 360-357-4017 incase you get lost.

movie night on Thursday

Halloween is coming up! Keeping with the spirit of the season us at Olympia Men's Project have decide to find a gay horror movie movie for a monthly movie night. This turned out being harder then we expected when we realized the movies we had planned on showing weren't out yet. Still for your viewing pleasure we managed to tract downThe Wolves of Kromer, a film about gay werewolves. Now, how often do you get to see one of those? We will be meeting to watch the film at 7:00 at UCAN. Pop corn and hot chocolate will be provided.

Also keep in mind, next Monday, October 10th, is our next sushi night sex discussion!! We will be meeting from 7-9 at Jim's house. Give us a call if you need directions or more information. Where else can you go this Monday to eat sushi and discuss sex and relationships with a group of gay/bi/trans/queer guys?

Its a little ways off but I wanted to let everyone know that we have a theme for this months themed bar outreach so we can start gathering costumes. He is a message from Nick, our themed outreach coordinator.
