DCist: D.C. Loses Gay Games Bid to Cleveland

DCist reports:

In an announcement today from Cologne, Germany — host city of the 2010 Gay Games — the Federation of Gay Games named Cleveland the host for their 2014 multi-sport event. Nearly one year ago, the organization selected Washington, D.C. as one of four finalists, pared down from 14 entries. D.C., Boston and Cleveland all submitted formal bids earlier this year; Miami, the fourth city, missed the bid submission deadline and was therefore no longer in contention.

We're sorry to see this news, but thanks to everyone who joined in D.C.'s effort.
