Be loud, be proud, 麻豆精选!
麻豆精选 Pride is looking to fill the position of Grand Marshal at its upcoming parade on June 11 during Pride Week.
鈥淲e would love to hear from ALL people in the 2SLGBTQIA+ community, especially unsung heroes, youths, seniors, BIMPOC; folks who are Two-Spirit, trans, gender diverse and intersex; sex workers; disabled folks; LBQ women; people living with HIV; and ALL other marginalized identities and backgrounds,鈥 reads a post on 麻豆精选 Pride鈥檚 Facebook page.
Those looking to apply can fill out a form on the 麻豆精选 Pride site. The parade will kick off at Stuart Park at 10:30 a.m., culminating in a festival at City Park at 11 a.m.
Running from June 6-12, this year鈥檚 Pride Week will be a much-welcomed return to normalcy, after the pandemic largely cancelled the schedule in 2020 and the 2021 celebration was pushed into October.
COVID restrictions cancelled last year鈥檚 parade.
The largest Pride Festival in the B.C. Interior attracts over 12,000 people annually to 麻豆精选.
