GroobyGirls Wins 2020 XBIZ Trans Site of the Year Award

LOS ANGELES — GroobyGirls.com took home the 2020 XBIZ Award for Trans Site of the Year at last week's red carpet gala.

"Thank you so much to XBIZ and our supporters for this win," said Kristel Penn, Grooby's marketing and editorial director.

"This win has an extra significance for our company because of the recent passing of our very-loved colleague, and my friend, Danny, aka Sparky Snakeden. He was one of the first people in our company to use the term 'Grooby Girl' in an official capacity, long before we rebranded our flagship site to that name. Thank you to XBIZ for this award and particularly for including Danny in the event’s 'In Memoriam' video. He is greatly missed by our company, and community, so this win holds a lot of meaning for us."
