News from the McLean County AIDS Task Force

Written by ACHR Staff on August 15, 2010 – 10:42 pm -

At this time we are not planning to have regular office hours when we do open but will be available for special events and groups. Read more »

Belated Anniversary Wishes!

Written by ACHR Staff on June 29, 2010 – 11:56 pm -

Happy Anniversary heart and birds.After our June issue went to press we received word that Ruth & Tana, longtime citizens/activists in our community, recently celebrated 30 years of sharing, bitching, living, laughing, loving, and enjoying each other.

Many of you will remember these two special people as the owners/operators of Once Upon a Time Books And Gifts, the LGBT bookstore and gift shop in downtown Bloomington. Their business and its goal to provide a service to the community helped make BloNo a more welcoming place for LGBT people and is still missed to this day.

Congratulations to this very special couple on their milestone!
