 Sunday, June 6th in downtown Santa Cruz, the ACLU will again be participating in the Pride Parade to celebrate GLBT Liberation. We will have a banner and encourage all local members and friends to join us in marching from Pacific Avenue and Cathcart Streets to the County Building (about ten blocks). The parade kicks off at 11am, but come early and enjoy the positive atmosphere and colorful crowds.

We recommend bringing water, sunscreen, and a hat. When you get to San Lorenzo Park Bench lands (near the County Building) you can enjoy a day of music, food, booths, and fun.
