Thompson will be celebrating Pride Month this weekend with the return of the Pride Parade.
Pride North of 55’s Harlie Pruder explains what this year’s event will entail.
“On Saturday, June 11th, we will be having a rally that’s starting at the TRCC and that will be starting at noon. It’s going to take place in the usual spot over in the parking lot. We’ll make a little map and put an x at where we are going to be meeting. We’ll be starting at the TRCC and then we are going to be having a parade down Thompson drive that will lead to McLean Park where we are planning our BBQ. Hopefully we will have some live performances and we’ll have a good old time.”
Following the march, there will be a ceremony to raise the Two-Spirit flag at city hall to recognize the Two-Spirit community in Thompson.
Catch Thompson Today at 12:40 and 5:10 this afternoon for more on this year’s Pride Month event.
