7 pm | Country Pride/Meet the Men of Dirty Tony's at Urban Mo's

William Zakrajshek (aka DJ Will Z) is once again organizing a gay field trip to the San Diego County Fair at the Del Mar Fairgrounds this year.

According to a Facebook page, the 2nd Annual Unofficial Gay Days at the Del Mar Fair is scheduled for this Sunday, from 2 to 11 pm.

SAN DIEGO -- Urban Mo’s bartender Michael “Giggles” Calles will represent San Diego at the third annual Palm Springs Summer Splash Cocktail Challenge, taking place Thursday.

Calles, the first runner-up in a local competition earlier this month, will compete against bartenders from 11 cities with his “Blue Palm” cocktail, made from Stoli Blueberi, Blue Curacao, Triple Sec, Sweet & Sour, and lemon/line soda with a blueberry, cherry and orange garnish.

SAN DIEGO -- Very soon, San Diego's LGBT community will see a colorful symbol of their pride flying high above the Hillcrest neighborhood.

Today, the City Council voted 7-0 to approve a proposal by the Hillcrest Business Association (HBA) to install a 65-foot flagpole in the median on Normal Street where it intersects with University Avenue.

City Councilmember Lorie Zapf was absent from the vote.

The plan calls for the pole to fly an 18 foot x 12 foot rainbow pride flag year-round, and include some minor enhancements to the median, around the base of the flagpole.
