Last month I saw a community snap to action unlike anything I’d even seen before. A HyVee manager had made the decision to remove this publication from their East Washington store after our January/February Love issue. We had been distributing there for two years. He ol claimed he’d gotten complaints, but never given any details on what they were about. When the news hit Madison’s LGBT&XYZ Magazine Facebook, I saw floodgates open with e-mails and posts Patrick Farabaugh to HyVee Corporate. The Facebook status reporting the news was shared a Publisher / Editor-in-Chief couple hundred times. Because of your action, HyVee very quickly reversed Emily Mills course and store management contacted me to welcome the magazine back.

  • 1 2016 U.S. Women's Football Leagues Addendum
    2016 U.S. Women’s Football Leagues Addendum New Mexico Adult Football League – Women’s Division (NMAFL-W) – 2015 Season The NMAFL-W launched in 2015 with five teams in New Mexico. The Alamogordo Aztecs failed to complete the season, while the Amarillo Lady Punishers joined the league late and absorbed four forfeit losses before even getting out of the gate. But the Lady Punishers were formidable once they got started, upsetting the previously undefeated Roswell Destroyers in the playoffs to make it to the first NMAFL-W title game. That opened the door for the Santa Fe Dukes to swoop in and capture the NMAFL-W championship at the conclusion of the league’s first season.
