Memoirs — Evelyn Rogers

Reflections on the Good Old Days

Evelyn Rogers and her partner were early members of Regina’s Atropos Friendship Society and the Odyssey Club, the social centre it operated for lesbians and gays in the Queen City. Rogers served on the group’s board of directors in 1975 and 1976 and was one of those who signed the group’s original incorporation application in March 1975.

In 1997 Sensible Shoes News published Reflections on the Good Old Days, Rogers’ memories of coming out as a lesbian in Regina in the 1970s and of her early involvement in ‘The Club’. This version contains a number of small corrections made by Rogers in 2006.
