Is This Family Friendly?

The League has learned that an announcement by Cony High School in Augusta says that a local family-friendly restaurant, the 99 Restaurant, will host a fundraiser Sunday morning for a so-called "Civil Rights Team," which among other things, works to normalize homosexuality in the minds of impressionable young school children.

Many people are offended b
y the fact that the the fundraiser will be held at the 99 Restaurant in Augusta, a restaurant which markets itself as "family-friendly."  The past activities of the Civil Rights Teams' Diversity Day at Cony High School have been nothing less than outrageous, and have not only portrayed homosexual activity by minors in a positive light, but youth transgenderism as well.

According to the November 12th announcement on the Cony High School website the Civil Rights Team will hold the event at the 99 Restaurant (281 Civic Center Drive, Augusta, ME 04330-8033, (207) 623-0999) on Sunday morning, at a time usually devoted to Sunday worship (from 7:30am until 9:00am).  The event will be hosted by the faculty adviser for the Cony High Civil Rights Team, April Fenton-Hulett.  Fenton-Hulett is also the School Board Chair for the Town of Mount Vernon, Maine and a member of the Maranacook Area Schools Committee.

The 99 Restaurants corporate officers are Brad Schiff (Executive Vice President), Jim Kiley (Regional Director), and Michelle Dean (Operations Manager).  Locally, the Augusta 99 Restaurant is run by General Manager Ken Stinchfield, (207) 848-3045.  The corporate officers and local General Manager were both contacted several days before the fundraiser with objections from the League about the event, but the restaurant both coporately and locally refused to re-consider their hosting of the homosexual youth fundraiser. 

It is regrettable that a business which wishes to be known as family-friendly is allowing an event which has the potential to cause moral harm to many of our precious young people.  A real injury is done when young people, who lack knowledge and experience of the real world, give their whole-hearted trust to people in positions of authority - their teachers - who in turn give them a false opinion regarding homosexuality and practices which cause devastating spiritual and physical harm.
