Hei,
dette er trakassering som følge av identitetstyveri, (virker det som).
(Jeg har ikke kontaktet disse).
Vennligst rydd opp!

PS.
Jeg sender fortsatt om identitetstyveri til Datatilsynet, (siden at det ikke
virker helt klart, hvem andre jeg burde sende om dette til, synes
jeg).

Welcome to our last 2020 edition of Participate!
This year continues to bring change and, finally, perhaps some rays of light to carry us forward into a new year of recovery and hope.
While there are still 6 weeks to go before we see the end of this year, here at the Federation our eyes already look to the future and to the AGA in January and the site selection process for choosing a host city for the 2026 Gay Games. Stay tuned for updates on this matter and, if you are a member or HLM with a gaygames.net email account, make sure you check it for the latest information about your participation in the selection process.
This month, we remembered our founder, Dr Tom Waddell, on his birthday, November 1. This year, he would have turned 83 had he not passed in 1987. It's incredible to think that what he started almost 40 years ago with passion and determination and a little over 1000 participants has turned into the world's largest sports and cultural event put on by the LGBTQ+ communities, routinely attracting upwards of 10,000 participants and many, many thousands more spectators. However, the Gay Games is, at its heart, about more than scale. It's about the core principles on which the Games was founded: Participation, Inclusion, Personal Best.
Many of us have not experienced a year like 2020 that has tested the necessity of those principles and, in some ways, empowered us to live them with urgency and intention. Yet, may we not need a year similar to this one to remind us to do so going forward.
We will be back in full force in January 2021 coming to you with a monthly PARTICIPATE! as we head closer to Gay Games 11 Hong Kong in 2022.
We wish you all health, happiness, prosperity and, above all, safety, until our next edition.
Joanie and Sean, on behalf of the whole of FGG. xx

GGHK2022 Update
Hong Kong looks to the future with the Gay Games in 2022
Reaching the two-years-to-go milestone until the Games in Hong Kong on November 11-19, the GGHK team are in the midst of working together with key organizations and community leaders for a unity celebration. Major corporations are meeting with the GGHK team to join as platinum sponsors and announcements are planned for early 2021.
“Unity is the key message of GGHK” said Dennis Philipse, founder & co-chair of GGHK. “Carrying a torch of empowerment and connection in Hong Kong serves to bring our community together in this important time for our city. We are excited to welcome all the expected 12,000 participants and 75,000 spectators from 100 countries to the city.”
“Becoming Asia’s first city to host Gay Games isn’t just a cause for pride and celebration for Hong Kong, it drives home the message that the LGBTI community and indeed all in society deserve to be visible, represented and included in sports and other areas of life,” said Mr Ricky CHU Man-kin, Chairperson of Hong Kong’s Equal Opportunities Commission.
Colin Grant, co-founder and CEO of The PURE Group and member of GGHK’s Advisory Committee stated “GGHK is a huge, exciting and progressive event for Hong Kong which the whole team at PURE are delighted to be part of, and it’s my honor to be on the advisory committee. The diversity and inclusion of the Gay Games, together with its unique approach to global and local sports, arts & culture means it’ll be a relevant and colorful boost to our city – especially being the first host city in Asia!”
“The Jockey Club HKFA Football Training Centre is proud to support this landmark event to promote equality for all. As well as being the Home of the Hong Kong representative teams we also provide inclusion to the community, schools and local charities. We are happy that the centre can host the Gay Games in 2022.” – Mark Sinclair, Operations Manager, HK Football Association.

Meet the GGHK Team: Jackie Vierow, Director of Sports
Having started as a Project Lead for the sports sector, my role has expanded to include the wider organization. I have always been passionate about sports and when I found out that Hong Kong had won the bid, I immediately looked for ways I could get involved. The Gay Games provides such an inclusive and accepting environment, which will be hugely beneficial to the people of Hong Kong.
Sports have an amazing ability to foster a sense of community and provide role models who empower others to find their voice. I hope to be a part of this empowerment by helping to increase awareness and participation across Hong Kong.
I have always been extremely enthusiastic when it comes to sports, as I jump at the opportunity to try anything new. In my 10 years in Hong Kong I have enjoyed cycling, running, swimming, triathlon, softball, rock climbing, badminton, tennis, basketball, sailing, and golf. Hong Kong may be known for its densely populated city, but sports enable people to experience the beautiful nature that Hong Kong also has on offer.
There are few places in the world where you can enjoy the city, mountains, and ocean almost all at once. You can wake up and take a dip in the ocean before work and enjoy a mountain trail hike on the way home to your apartment in the middle of the city! On top of that, Hong Kong is rich in culture with an incredible food scene that includes local street food all the way through to elevated cuisine from all over the world.
Meet the GGHK Team: Alan Tse, Associate PR & Communications Manager
It’s been a pleasure to join the GGHK 2022 team as the Associate PR & Communication Manager. It’s been a wonderful opportunity to promote the diverse culture that we are proud of in Hong Kong.
In my daily life I love art and music and I often get together with friends to listen to our favourite singers and go to concerts. I’m excited by the arts & cultural events at GGHK 2022 as I enjoy visiting art exhibitions and exploring the new artists in the industry.
Gay Games 11 Hong Kong 2022 will change perceptions, open new doors and foster ongoing community enrichment through emerging LGBTQ sport teams and cultural groups in many communities throughout the Asia Pacific region. Even thought it’s still two years away, I can’t wait for the Gay Games to get underway in Hong Kong.
Meet the GGHK Team: Luke White, Finance Coordinator
I moved to Hong Kong in September 2019 and prior to moving I was researching ways to get involved in the local LGBT+ community. That’s how I came across the Gay Games and I knew I could contribute something to the local LGBT+ community using my skills as an accountant.
Competitive sport was a big part of my life throughout university and after, as I used to compete nationally and internationally in Dancesport and formation dancing, so I was excited to see that the Gay Games also includes a Dancesport category. As such, the Gay Games perfectly combined my passions for diversity and sport!
I relocated to Hong Kong to join my partner who had moved here two years ago. An accountant by training, I still work in finance and am also trying to kick start an LGBT+ employee network here in my Hong Kong office. Since moving to Hong Kong, I’ve gone back to the gym and have enjoyed getting into F45. I also very much enjoy running and try to hike as often as possible to make the most of Hong Kong’s beautiful trails. I also brought my bicycle from the UK and plan to get out on some rides with a cycling group at some point!
Hong Kong is such a diverse and vibrant city. Its fast pace keeps you on your toes and you constantly meet new and interesting people.

Meet Our Volunteers
David C. Doan, PhD, MBA, RN, PMC-II, PMP, CSM, BCMAS
Vice Chair of Culture & Ceremonies Committee
Can you tell us a little about who you are, where you live, what sport/culture activity you participate in?
Greetings from Southern California! My name is David Doan and I live literally approximately 2 kilometers from Disneyland® in Anaheim, California. I am currently the Vice Chair of the Culture & Ceremonies Committee as of September 2020. I am also one of two delegates for the Lesbian and Gay Band Association (LGBA).
Professionally, I am a management consulting manager at Accenture in their North America Health Clinical Innovation Practice. I have over 25 years in the healthcare industry with multifaceted expertise in consulting, strategy, business development, sales, account management, project management, product management, implementation, solution architect, performance improvement, change management, and training/education development.I have a passion in nonprofit organisations and am currently on the Board of Directors for four other organisations: Lesbian and Gay Band Association (LGBA); Gay Freedom Band of Los Angeles (GFBLA); American Public Health Association (APHA); Project Management Institute – Orange County Chapter (PMI-OC)
How many Gay Games have you attended?
3. Gay Games VIII Be Part of It (2010) – Cologne, Germany; Gay Games IX Go All Out (2014) – Cleveland, Ohio USA; Gay Games X All Equal (2018) – Paris, France
Can you tell us about your first Gay Games experience?
My first Gay Games experience in Cologne, Germany was life-changing, cathartic, and transformative. Prior to attending, I was hesitant and anxious for my safety knowing that the expected large group of LGBTQ+ people might incite hatred and intolerance for obvious reasons. This was not the case at all. Instead, the reception from the beautiful people of Cologne was an unexpected and warm welcome.
I remembered warming up prior to stepping into the RheinEnergie Stadium for the Gay Games Opening Ceremony Team Band rehearsal and realised that I was part of something big. Performing the Gay Games anthem song, “Take the Flame,” was life-changing and symbolic. Performing “Elsa’s Procession to the Cathedral ” for the Gala concert was so moving that I still remember the chills that it gave me on that night. For the first time in my life, I could actually be free, liberated, and be who I am. Meeting people across the globe, sight-seeing the beautiful Cologne Cathedral, and partying on the streets of Cologne are memories that I will never forget. I took away from this experience to always be authentic and not be afraid of expressing myself ever again.
What was your highlight at GGX: Paris 2018?
The Gay Games X in Paris offered numerous highlights. I will sum them in three words: hot, “Rise,” and food. The heat! Wow! The heat was unbearable for the two weeks that I was there. The humid heat also offered many hot memories around the city. Playing the numerous French classical orchestral repertoire with the Salon Orchestra under the baton of Charles Andreolitti was musically rewarding. Having the opportunity to perform Rosanno Galante’s “Rise: A Gay Games Anthem,” commissioned by the Federation of Gay Games, under the baton of Kathleen McGuire on the Casino de Paris stage was historic. Finally, I thoroughly enjoyed eating great foods and drinking lots of red wines without being rushed at numerous cafés around Paris. What a treat!
What attracted you to volunteer for the Federation of Gay Games?
As mentioned previously, I am passionate about the causes and mission of nonprofit organisations. What attracted me to volunteer for the Federation of Gay Games is the unique and special collaboration of sports and culture. I was an avid volleyball player, swimmer, and cross-country runner and wished I would have known about the Gay Games previously. I am also a musician with the love for theatre. The Gay Games promotes the unity of both sports and culture as we are not just an athlete or a musician. Moreover, the core principles of Participation, Inclusion, and Personal Best™ seems to sum up succinctly the tenets of how we all should live our lives. I chose to volunteer so that I can carry out these principles and promote equality through sports and culture.
Why do you think this volunteer opportunity is a good match for you?
The position of Vice Chair of Culture & Ceremonies Committee is a nice fit for me for some of the reasons mentioned above. In addition, I have direct experience in planning events and conferences. I also appreciate the importance, tradition, and sensitivity of the various events that fall under the purview of this role including the Opening
Ceremony, Closing Ceremony, and Memorial Moment. It is also an advantage having the experience of being a participant at previous Gay Games so that I can incorporate elements into these events to improve and enhance the experience of guests, presenters, and spectators. Finally, I am an extremely organised person with strong project management skills that will be put to good use in facilitating stakeholders’ buy-in and promoting efficient coordination of tasks and activities. I look forward to taking on the challenge of this important role.
What is it like to volunteer with the Federation?
Like any nonprofit organisation, immersing with the culture of the Board of Directors is an important aspect of being productive, collaborative, and collegial. There is also a need to be sensitive to the prioritisation and needs of various sports and cultural committees. Finally, there is a great opportunity to collaborate with team members across the globe. Working in this global and diverse environment excites and delights me. The spirit of diversity, equity, and inclusion is surely demonstrated and permeated throughout every interaction and aspect of my role. I am humble by the opportunity and experience to contribute toward the mission of the Federation of Gay Games.
Can you tell us about the project you are working on?
Currently, I am actively working on the first-ever virtual production of the Memorial Moment in support of the upcoming Annual General Assembly (AGA) meeting in 23rd and 24th January 2021. This event will be produced virtually as we are not able to meet in person in London. There are numerous technical and logistic considerations to ensure collaboration across geographies/teams and preservation of the purpose, tone, and mood of this important, respectful, and symbolic Memorial Moment event that has historically been held in person. I am hopeful and confident that the final deliverable will incorporate these elements.

Diversity and Inclusion
A series of interviews with supporters, members and fellow activists.
Nadyne Trindade
What is your name, and where do you live?
My name is Nadyne, I am originally from Brazil but for the past 2 years I have been living Loughborough, UK.
How long have you been serving the Federation of Gay Games?
I just recently joined the FGG after having the chance to learn more about the organisation over this summer. Speaking to some senior members, I learned about the role with the Diversity and Inclusion Committee and I wanted to become part of the projects that were being developed in these areas.
What role do you have? What do you do in this role? What led you to take on this role?
I am a volunteer at the Diversity and Inclusion Committee, working mainly on policy development and the current debates around gender identity and expression. In this work, I collaborate with other committee and external members to put down equality, diversity and inclusion policies & practices both for the FGG and Host Cities of the Games. There were two main motivations behind my decision to take this role: firstly, my admiration for the history of the Gay Games, the guiding principles of the FGG and for the alternative narratives that people are able to create for themselves when they find a place and a community in sport. Secondly, as a young academic, I often look for ways to translate evidence from research into good practices that will promote social justice and enhance participation.
What do you get from volunteering with the Federation?
The best part of this is the opportunity to connect to people from all parts of world who are highly motivated to create a sporting and culture event that is continuously more inclusive and diverse. I have a deep admiration for my colleagues and I find everyone to be very approachable when it comes to sharing their experiences and expertise in different areas. Working in a collaborative environment in which you feel compelled to ask questions, challenge assumptions and to connect to people at the personal level has been a very satisfying experience to me.
When you look back – have you had a proudest moment? If so what is it?
A few days ago, I realised that a lot of what I do these days in terms of work and also my social circle has a lot to do with the Gay Games in Cleveland and I feel very honoured by that. In 2014, I was studying in London, ON (Canada) and I heard about the event through a group of other athletes from my university who wanted to share the costs of gas and accommodation. Their enthusiasm was contagious!
What would you say to another woman who was thinking of volunteering for the FGG?
Being part of the FGG allows me to “be the change I wish to see in the world” and I feel that this is at the same time a very rewarding and humbling experience. I wish other people will also be able to celebrate how far we have come and to also join hands on the work we need to do across the different areas of the organization.

Sarah Townsend – Volunteer on Site Selection Committee and Delegate for Federation Sportive Gay et Lesbien (France)
What is your name, and where do you live?
Sarah Townsend, France
How long have you been serving the Federation of Gay Games?
Since 2015
What role do you have? What do you do in this role? What led you to take on this role?
International Delegate Fédération Sportive Gaie et Lesbienne (FSGL). This is a ‘relay’ role – I am the information conduit between the FGG and the FSGL, which involves keeping both organisations up-to-date with relevant information about each other. I attend the FGG AGAs and write up a report for the FSGL on the proceedings so that all the French members can be kept up-to-date with FGG advances and bring any questions the FSGL has to the FGG AGA; I read, comment on, and relay the Gay Games bid books, and vote on site selections for FSGL with their considerations in mind; I help inform on and promote the values and actions of each organisation.
What do you get from volunteering with the Federation?
What I get back mostly is the satisfaction of helping to build a community. I joined the LGBTQ+ sport movement in 2015 after benefitting from it for a good few years. I was contacted by the FSGL and had a long chat with Marc Naimark about activities and the duties and possibilities of volunteering. Even though I am isolated in my very non-LGBTQ+ corner of rural France, as an international delegate I have a connection with a huge vibrant LGBTQ+ sport network that has led me to all sorts of things I never thought I’d be doing – working with the EGLSF, promoting LGBTQ+ values in my local rowing club (and taking a contingent of 26 women to the 2018 Gay Games, and participating in an Erasmus+ sport project this year!), co-founding a sport association locally to promote women’s sport. That first step of volunteering to connect with FGG opened up a fantastic path of personal discovery and I like to think that my activities and actions since have provided this opportunity to others.
When you look back – have you had a proudest moment? If so what is it?
Many moments I’m proud of – speaking at the European Parliament against homophobia in sport, being part of the group carrying the FGG flag at the opening ceremony in Paris, when I’m promoting LGBTQ+ sport locally, co-founding a women’s sport organisation. But I never feel prouder than when I am simply with friends and colleagues at LGBTQ+ sport events - the Games, the AGAs, simply being part of this community.
What would you say to another woman who was thinking of volunteering for the FGG?
Just Do It! We hesitate, wondering if we’re good enough, imagining that others have more to offer than us, but we all have valuable experiences and sharing those experiences is precious. We all have our different ways of touching people and if being you can offer someone else the opportunity to also be them, then that’s all that counts.

PRIDE GAMES GUADALAJARA 2020
Federación Mexicana Deportiva de la Diversidad (FMDD), recently celebrated the first edition of Pride Games, which took place in Guadalajara, Mexico from October 23rd to the 25th. Taking in all of the necessary health precautions into account, Pride Games Guadalajara 2020 had 450 registered athletes featured in 7 disciplines an: volleyball, beach volleyball, football 7, tennis, track & field, an aerobics class and a gymnastics exhibition.
Due to the current pandemic, all sporting activities had to be held outdoors, which was the reason Pride Games was held in Unidad Deportiva Revolución, a sports venue with more than 6 hectares of open area. All participants, referees and staff members were directed to go through a sanitation tunnel when entering the venue, as well as measuring each person’s temperature. The use of masks was mandatory for all and the face space was greatly encouraged among team members. The areas were also constantly sanitized by a wireless nano flow pistol that provided reassurance to the health of the participants. And finally, participants were asked to volunteer for COVID testing which was administered by a certified doctor.
Among the activities that occurred during Pride Games, Francisco (Paco) Sevilla, a male gymnast from Mexico City, made a performance to Adele “Someone like you” on a balance beam during the Welcome Words on Saturday 24th. The moment was significant due to prejudice male gymnast have on performing on this apparatus, which is considered one of the most difficult apparatuses in gymnastics, requiring an obscene amount of strength, flexibility, and balance, but only female athletes use it. With a wave of applause for his performance, the moment was used to send out a message of inclusion and equality.
Fernando Ortega, director of the State Sports Ministry, Juan Carlos Razo, president of FMDD, and Jorge Luis Martínez gave welcoming words to the participants and other guests. Jorge Luis Martínez was the guest of honour, a speed skater world medallist athlete who recently made the courageous act of coming out during the Pan American Games in Lima 2019.
Pride Games wouldn’t have been possible without the valuable support from the State Ministry of Tourism, State Ministry of Health, the State Sports Commission (CODE), the Direction of Sexual Diversity for the Government of Jalisco and the Guadalajara CVB, as well as the sponsors that came onboard this first edition: Hotel Auténtico Vertical, Electrolit (hidration), Outback México and Baxu.
The FMDD is currently working on the future projects and hope to release the date of the next edition very soon.

Chicago University Adds Class on Impact of the Gay Games
In June, 2020, the FGG was contacted by Kate O’Brien, Associate Athletic Director at DePaul University in Chicago. She was seeking someone to speak about the Chicago Gay Games to two classes for first-year students in October.
The class is called “The Socioeconomic Impact of Sport in Chicago.” Previous topics covered include Title IX / equal pay in sports, Olympic controversies (the Munich games in 1972), the Chicago Marathon, the Chicago Park District, race in athletics, the NCAA Transgender Student-Athlete policy, gender identity, Special Olympics, and the Paralympics. As a microcosm of society, sport offers a unique venue to discuss such topics as race, class, gender, sexual orientation, access/privilege, leadership and community service, among others—all with a focus on power, privilege. and inequality.
The classes were comprised of first-year student-athletes enrolled in an “Explore Chicago” class entitled “The Socioeconomic Impact of Sport in Chicago.” Other topics covered during this class have included Title IX/equal pay in sports, Olympic controversies including the events of the Munich games in 1972, the Chicago Marathon, the Chicago Park District, race in athletics, the NCAA Transgender Student-Athlete policy, gender identity, Special Olympics and the Paralympics. As a microcosm of society, sport offers a unique venue to discuss such topics as race, class, gender, sexual orientation, access/privilege, leadership and community service, among others—all with a focus on power, privilege and inequality.
Kate O’Brien had been introduced to the Gay Games by a former men’s tennis student-athlete at DePaul, who participated in the 2006 games in Chicago. Said O’Brien, “When I learned over the summer we’d be 100% online this quarter, I started trying to think of new cool ways to engage the classes. A colleague at DePaul, Mark Wodziak, a faculty member in the sociology department encouraged me to focus on power, privilege, and inequality. With that in mind, I started looking back to topics we had covered in the past but not in a while. I remembered the Gay Games and emailed the Federation.”
Doug Litwin, the FGG Officer of Marketing, and a native Chicagoan, offered to speak to the two virtual classes (morning and afternoon) on 14 October. He gave a zoom presentation that introduced the Gay Games movement, reviewed the entire history, and then focused most of the class on the Chicago Gay Games VII which took place in 2006.
A total of 49 first-year student-athletes attended the two classes on 14 October.
Comments from students afterwards included…
“I just got out of an amazing class.”
“That was cool.”
“I had no idea the Gay Games were a thing.”
Said Kate O’Brien, “Guest speakers like Doug have allowed us to bring topics to life allowing students to get much more out of the experience than they could reading something or watching a video.”
Since the Chicago Gay Games took place 14 years ago when all of these students were just young children, plans are already in place to repeat this course in the future.

New Radio Program Explores Early Gay Games History
A San Francisco-based radio producer, Maria Crispi, has just posted a comprehensive new show exploring the early history of the Gay Games, from 1981 through 1987. This show spans nearly 3 hours and includes a number of interviews with organizers and participants in those early years.
Maria is a bisexual woman who attended Gay Games I as a spectator and has followed the event ever since. She worked very diligently to identify key individuals from the early Gay Games and conducted interviews with them.
Anyone who participated in the early Gay Games, or who is interested in the event’s history, would enjoy listening to this show. It is presented in four parts. Here are two links where you may access the radio show:
