Newburyport Pride Parade
The Welcoming Committee invites and encourages everyone to take part in the second annual Newburyport Pride parade on Saturday, June 1. FRSUU is already registered, so there is no need to sign up for the parade. Just gather at Bartlett Mall by 11:30am and look for the group from FRSUU. Volunteers will be on hand to help you find the group as well. The parade kicks off at noon. There is a new, longer route - down Green St. to Merrimack and Market Square, then up State St. and a right on Pleasant St. Yes, this year the parade will pass right by FRS! For parade participants, FRSUU tee-shirts are encouraged, as are any positive signs and rainbow accessories of any kind. This year, there is a festival in Brown Square, following the parade, until 4pm. For any questions, please reach out to Holly Cashman from the Welcoming Committee who is also a co-chair of Newburyport Pride: cashman.holly@gmail.com.
