Center on Halsted’s SAGE (Services & Advocacy for Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual & Transgender Elders) program hosted its first WinterPride: A Cool Night Out party and dance Feb. 16. The ages of the attendees spanned several generations, with most between 30 and 60—something that didn’t faze popular DJ Levilynn Chriss, who managed to play something for everyone and keep the partygoers on the dance floor all night long. The event also included speed dating, topical chat rooms, light snacks, a cash bar and the opportunity to mingle or just kick back in the lounge. This mixer featured a long list of hosts, including lesbian community icons Pat McCombs, Betty Lark Ross and Jackie Anderson.
