Trip Report/Photos
The weather was beautiful, warm (high 70s) & totally sunny, a gorgeous day for skinny-dipping, naked croquet, and just plain relaxing at the 9th Annual Garden Party / BBQ and Chinese Auction Benefit at Frog Meadow!
We had a turnout of approximately 100 guys from near and far and the highlight of the day was a Chinese Auction of 30+ prizes worth over $5,000!
With your help, we raised a record amount which will be donated to AIDS Project of Southern VT specifically earmarked for their testing, screening and men's programs!
We are all grateful for the efforts of APSV to support the local gay, bi and questioning male community and the very important work of HIV education, prevention and services provided to those with HIV and their families.

What Members Are Saying About This Trip/Event
- This was our first visit to Frog Meadow. One word "Amazing". We had such a great time at this event meeting new people, enjoying great food and even a quick dip in the pond. The Chinese auction was full of great prizes which we went home with 4 of them a painting, sculpture a 2 night stay at Fieldstone Lodge and a 2 night stay at Four Columns both located in Newfane VT. We will definitely be going back next year. Thank you Scott and Dave hope to see you both soon. - kayakhike
