Celebrate the 30th Anniversary of Gay Law Reform in SA 1975-2005

On the morning of September 18th 1975, South Australians awoke to The
Advertiser headline: "Homosexuality Legal in SA". After a three-year battle
in parliament, South Australia had become the first State to enact gay law
reform.

To celebrate this momentous occasion, the Let's Get Equal Campaign is
holding a Rally exactly 30 years to the day, on Sunday 18th September 2005
at 2pm on the steps of Parliament House.

EVERYONE is invited to attend. Bring your banners and flags and balloons and
whistles. It's a Celebration! It's a Show of Pride and Strength and Unity of
the GLBTIQ communities.

Hosted by LGE Campaign's Matthew Loader & Roxxy Bent, speakers will include
Will Sergeant - 70s gay activist extraordinaire; Deb McCulloch AM -Women's
Adviser to the Dunstan Government; Rodney Croome AM - national gay activist
& advocate; and Linda Matthews - the Commissioner for Equal Opportunity in
SA.

There will also be performances by the Adelaide Gay & Lesbian Qwire and the
Lampshade Shop Queer Performing Arts Group.

And then from 3pm the celebration continues at The Ed Castle Hotel in the
Beer Garden, with happy hour drinks, live entertainment, and LGE Campaign
sausage sizzle and raffle fundraisers.

Looking forward to seeing you there!
