This is a moderated group with the goal of building community among gay men who live in the East Bay. We sponsor no-host social gatherings on the First Friday of each month, at the new location of the Grand Tavern, 3601 Grand Avenue in Oakland (about four blocks north of the Grand Lake Theatre), from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Both couples and singles are welcome. The only e-mail sent out will be a monthly reminder of these events, plus an occasional announcement of events that help build community among gay men in the East Bay. Only the moderator of the group will be able to post announcements to the group members. E-mail will average one or two a month.
