Provincetown, Massachusetts [May 12, 2009] – Fenway Health and Girl Power Events invite women to come “rock the boat” for the first Women’s Party Cruise Memorial Day Weekend.

Departing from the end of MacMillan Wharf in Provincetown, the Party Cruise fundraiser is scheduled to set sail on Saturday, May 23 from 1 p.m. until 4 p.m. aboard Bay State Cruise Company’s, Provincetown II. The three-deck boat is big enough for both a top-deck dance party and those looking for afternoon mixing and mingling on the waters of Provincetown Bay. The event will include a dance party, an auction with fabulous items including an Olivia Trip for 2, and hundreds of happy women.

A line-up of star-studded cruisers includes celebrity guests Suzanne Westenhoefer, ALL THE KINGS MEN performance troupe, Poppy Champlin, Lizzie Borden, Gloria Bigelow, Jackie Monahan, Amy Tee, Chantal Carrere – and the stars and producers of the new lesbian web series Anyone But Me (www.anyonebutmeseries.com) in their first-ever public appearance.

Tickets are $25 and can be purchased online at www.fenwayhealth.org/girlpartycruise. Check-in opens at 11:30 a.m.; boarding begins at 12:30 p.m. Cruisers must be 21 or older to attend.

The cruise will raise money for Boston-based Fenway Women’s Health Programs where the health care needs of all women, especially lesbians, bisexual and transgender women, is an integral part of their mission. Fenway provides supportive and sensitive care regardless of a woman’s sexual orientation, gender identity, age, race, religion, or ability to pay.
Discrimination in the health care system and social stigma often make LBT women hesitant to seek or continue medical care. Fenway Health provides high-quality primary medical and behavioral health care in a safe, affirming environment.

“While there have been many Ptown cruises throughout the years for the boys, there’s never been a Boat Cruise for women,” said Lynette Molnar, Girl Power Events powerhouse. “Picture this: We’ll have an all-women afternoon dance party on the water, plus a passenger list full of nationally known stars from our community, while we’re raising money for Fenway’s important work. It’s a party with a purpose on the water!”

In addition to making an appearance on the boat, Anyone But Me’s creators Susan Miller (The L Word and thirtysomething) and Tina Cesa Ward (award-winning filmmaker,) and the series lead stars Rachael Hip-Flores (Vivian) and Nicole Pacent (Aster), will also be appearing at a free screening and Talk Back the UU Meeting House, 236 Commercial Street, Saturday May 23 at 8 p.m. Anyone But Me, a new Web-based episodic series, premiered on StrikeTV last December. Episodes can be viewed at www.AnythingButMeSeries.com

The cruise is co-sponsored by Olivia, ProvincetownForWomen.com, LesbianNightLife.com, The Women Innkeepers of Provincetown, AlicesChart.com, Bay Windows, Boston Spirit Magazine, MyFandoms.com and the Anyone But Me series.

The atlantic ocean is pretty stunning… it is nice to take walks on the beach at sunset any time of year… as you can see…

We have gone through and made some updates to Provincetownforwomen.com, freshening up the content and adding more useful information. This site is sure to be useful and helpful to you as you plan your trips to Provincetown.

This is some old news… we thought we would post it to the blog because it was worth remembering… a great moment in ptown…

Provincetown - (September 30, 2004) Massachusetts, the state that became the first in the Union to end discrimination by allowing same-sex marriage, is set to make history again. Women planning to attend the 20th Annual Women’s Week in Provincetown, Massachusetts are limbering up their lips for a mass kissing session that will set the first Guinness World Record for number of women kissing at once.

Girl Power Events and The Women Innkeepers of Provincetown are inviting women to smooch simultaneously for 12 seconds as the Provincetown Town Hall clock chimes high noon on Saturday, October 16th, 2004. Women will begin gathering in front of Town Hall at 11:30AM for the noon kiss. This landmark event, the first of its kind, will be followed by a group commitment ceremony inside Town Hall.

The Kiss-In is the brainchild of Provincetown event organizer and innkeeper Lynette Molnar who has had her mind set on establishing this record for some time. “Provincetown has long been a town of firsts for the gay and lesbian community, so it is only appropriate that the record be established here on the occasion of the 20th Anniversary of Women’s Week,” Molnar, the event’s spokesperson. Molnar planned the Kiss-In to mark the special Anniversary of Women’s Week, an annual gathering of lesbians that started as a short weekend 20 years ago with 250 attendees and has grown into a 10 day event that attracts thousands of women from across the country and around the world.

Lesbian residents of Provincetown who have recently married will boost the attempt on the world record by leading the Kiss-In. Since May 17th thousands of couples in cities and towns across Massachusetts have legally married. However, Governor Mitt Romney is attempting to enforce the 1913 “Reverse Evasion” law denying marriage licenses to out-of-state couples. Provincetown is lead plaintiff in a 12-town suit seeking to overturn the 1913 statute under which the Commonwealth is seeking to deny issuance of marriage licenses to out-of-state same-sex couples not intending to reside in Massachusetts.

After the Kiss-In, those not residing, or intending to reside in Massachusetts, are invited to participate in a group Commitment Ceremony in Town Hall. “Marriage rights are civil rights,” said Molnar. “And the joys of a public wedding as a chance to honor significant relationships is as important to lesbians as they are to any heterosexual couple. On October 16th, we will offer our respect and validation to hundreds of women, acknowledging the tremendous bonds of love and commitment they share.”
