Outserve International Conference To Be Held At Walt Disney World Resort

Shades of Green, an army-owned resort at the Walt Disney World resort, will be the site of a convention for gay active military members next fall. The Outserve International Leadership Conference is expected to draw hundreds of gay and lesbian soldiers, Marines and airmen to the resort in October.

According to convention organizer Joshua Seefried, the conference is a big step for the Army as it has been only around a year since the military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy was overturned.
