YS Pride

From the organizers of Yellow Springs Pride:

Yellow Springs Pride is holding its first annual gay pride weekend Saturday, June 30 and Sunday, July 1. On Saturday at 4:30pm, participants will gather on the lawn of the John Bryan Community Center with a “Sidewalk Pridewalk” beginning at 5:00pm. Yellow Springs Pride t-shirts, flags and other goodies will be available for the walk for a suggested donation, and there will be lots of cool giveaways for parade fans. Emporium Wines and Underdog Café will host an after-party and wine tasting starting at 6:30pm with local DJ Clean Gene!

On Sunday, Yellow Springs Pride is hosting a “We Are Family” picnic at Gaunt Park. From 1-3pm, come out to enjoy family-friendly swimming, pick up kickball and karaoke. Organizers will provide bottled water and encourage families to bring their own picnic lunches. For more information, find Yellow Springs Pride online at www.facebook.com/ys-pride.
