Next up, Telluride Gay Ski Week

Telluride Gay Ski Week (TGSW) is an annual week-long gay ski event produced by StraightOut Media & Marketing with support from the Telluride Mountain Village Owners Association and benefitting the Telluride AIDS Benefit locally and the Mathew Shepard Foundation nationally.  Ranked the #1 gay ski week in the USA by gay.com, TGSW bills itself an alternative to other gay ski weeks that provides a unique vacation experience in a spirited and unpretentious ski town.  Nestled in a box canyon surrounded by the majestic 13,000 ft peaks of the San Juan Mountains, Telluride Gay Ski Week brings the charm of Telluride together with the European-style town of Mountain Village. 

Judy Shepard will appear at several events in Telluride open to the public on Feb. 23 and 24, including a public address, a book signing for "The Meaning of Matthew," and a special benefit dinner banquet to benefit the Foundation's ongoing program work to Erase Hate.
