Equality Kansas - Northeast

St. Joe Pride is an all-volunteer effort. None of our board members are compensated for their time, and we rely entirely on the generosity of our community to make Pridefest possible.
You are our greatest asset. You know which businesses in St. Joseph value inclusivity and community support. We are looking for partners to help us keep our events free and accessible to everyone.

How you can help today:
- Share our mission with a business owner you know.
- Mention sponsorship opportunities to your employer.
- Tag supportive local businesses in the comments who might want to get involved.

Please note change in venue.

Equality Kansas Northeast will be there.

🌧️‼️PICNIC UPDATE- LOCATION CHANGE‼️🌧️

Don't worry, our 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈4th Annual Pride Picnic🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ is still on!

SAME DATE- 6/14
SAME TIME- 1-3:30
NEW LOCATION- Leavenworth Local Hotel

Due to concerns that the weather may force us to cancel or reschedule our event, we chose to move our Picnic indoors. Thankfully, the Local was available and willing to work with us on short notice!

While this means we won't have the breeze, the shade, the splash pad, or the playground, it also means we won't have to worry about downpours, soggy picnic blankets, wind gusts, or having to give up and reschedule for an unknown date.

Keep an eye out for another update tomorrow with more details for the new location regarding parking, layout, and what to expect. We would have loved to stay with our original plan at Hawthorn Park, but we decided this was the best way to proceed for minimal disruption to our guests and vendors.

Please share this post to spread the word and ensure everyone knows the new plan. Can't wait to see you there!

I had a wonderful time briefing Oasis members on the Crisis our Trans community is facing in Kansas. Oasis is a welcoming, supportive and nurturing organization that cultivates shared human experience where "People are more important than beliefs."

I am always grateful to interact with Oasis and have a number of friends including my nephew that regularly attend.
