Pride week here in Thompson will wrap up tomorrow with the annual Pride North of 55 pride march.
Nelly Allen, one of the organizers, spoke to Arctic Radio News and said that those taking part are asked to meet at the TRCC at 10:30am tomorrow so that they can start the march by 11:00am.
The march will head around the Thompson Drive loop and up Cree Road before heading to MacLean Park.
Allen says that there will be a barbecue at the park following the arrival of those marching, with the money raised going towards Pride North of 55.
She added that in addition to the barbecue, there will be live local music and dancing.
City of Thompson Mayor Dennis Fenske proclaimed September 16th through the 22nd as Pride Week, which started with a flag raising at City Hall on Monday morning.
Yesterday morning on City Beat, Mayor Fenske said he was both glad and proud to have been part of the flag raising once again.
