The Jim Toy Community Center, or JTCC, is fighting for "Equality in Michigan" with a golf outing at the end of the month. Proceeds from their first ever golf outing will go towards their continued fight for equal rights in the state of Michigan. Finishing out the last month of "Pride Season," JTCC will also continue to play host to their various other activities. Weekly and monthly events include Lezread, a lesbian book club, as well as support groups for various forms of addiction.
JTCC is a resource for the gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, queer, and allied residents of Ann Arbor, Ypsilanti, and greater Washtenaw County. The center is named for Jim Toy, the first openly out queer in Michigan and an active member of LGBT politics in Washtenaw county.
The golf outing will begin at 8:30 AM on Saturday, August 24 at Fox Hills Golf Club, 8769 North Territorial Road in Plymouth. A ball scramble will start the event. The outing costs $99 per golfer, and tickets are available through the Jim Toy Community Center website with PayPal. For more information, visit http://www.jimtoycenter.org.
