“Destination PSP has a long history of supporting our local community,” said Jeffrey Bernstein, co-owner of Destination PSP. “We believe that quality merchandise is an excellent gateway for organizations to raise awareness and expand their branding.  We are delighted to be working with Brad Fuhr and Gay Desert Guide to help promote this important hashtag that unites LGBT tourism in the greater Coachella Valley.”

The exclusive #ILoveGayPalmSprings t-shirts are 100% cotton, made in the USA and are available in multiple sizes and colors. The coffee mugs are available in a wide array of colors and are packaged in a special presentation box.  The wine carrier is made of neoprene and is available in bright orange with a light blue trim.  All the products include the retro-inspired #ILoveGayPalmSprings logo designed by Destination PSP Creative Director Tom Dolle.

"#ILoveGayPalmSprings brings together the conversations and relevant content related to LGBT Palm Springs,” explained Brad Fuhr, founder of GayDesertGuide.com. “It provides a central source for where we participate in and become an active part of these social media conversations out where they are happening  - live, in real-time on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and other social media platforms."
"Our intent and our goal is to interact with, work with and leverage the activity and user-generated content for the #ILoveGayPalmSprings campaign, for both our site overall and on our advertiser's behalf," said LGBT BrandVoice president Matt Skallerud.

Consumers and local businesses are encouraged to use the hashtag  #ILoveGayPalmSprings in their Twitter, Instagram and Facebook posts.  GayDesertGuide.com is also giving away a monthly $50 local restaurant gift card to a random winner each month who posts using both #GayDesertGuide and #ILoveGayPalmSprings.
