That's a wrap on Pride season |
|
|
We set a record this year by having an outreach booth at 13 Pride festivals, not to mention several Pride-themed events. Who would have have thought that Pride season spanned six months? Thank you to the dozens of volunteers who have made it possible for RECLAIM to fan out across the metro and Greater Minnesota to share our work with the community!Β
Where we've been this summer: Rochester Pride, Youth Pride (Saint Paul), Golden Valley Pride, Trans Joy Fest (Duluth), Transforming Generations Pride Fest, Bloomington Pride, Twin Cities Pride, West Saint Paul Pride, MN POC Pride (Powderhorn Park), Duluth-Superior Pride, Brainerd Pride, Saint Cloud Pride, and Day of the Transgender Child (Loring Park).
