Host a CookOUT for Marriage Equality

Equality Virginia Joins You to CookOUT for Marriage Equality!

What are you doing the weekend of May 17th?  Sign up to host a CookOUT for Marriage Equality!

There is nothing more American than a backyard CookOUT!  Hosting a CookOUT for Marriage Equality is a fun way to come together with family, friends, and neighbors in celebration of marriage.

Join in on the fun on May 17th or 18th by hosting a CookOUT! 

Last year's CookOUTs were a huge success - check out some photos here. We hope you will host a CookOUT this year to make an even bigger splash!

We chose the weekend of May 17 and 18 for the CookOUTs this year because on May 13th, the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals is scheduled to hear oral arguments for Bostic v. Schaefer.  Join us that weekend by celebrating the marriages that Virginia does not yet recognize, sharing your stories, and posting photos of your weddings and CookOUTs as a way to show support for the couples in this case! 

Anybody can host a CookOUT - all it takes is a few friends and a couple of hours to spare on a weekend afternoon.  

We are almost 40% to our goal of having 50 CookOUTs across Virginia.  Get us closer to our goal by signing up today!
