Out in the Park, Tacoma Pride!

PCYD pride captainsThis year, the PCYDs set up a booth at Tacoma’s Out in the Park Pride festival. Thanks to Melissa Vincett’s design skills, they were able to inform the public about the PCYDs and YDWA. They also collected over 50 signatures for the Queer Caucus petition in support of Patty Murray’s bill, the Tyler Clementi Higher Education Anti-Harassment Act that prevents discrimination in college campuses that accept federal funds. Congressman Derek Kilmer dropped by to get a selfie with the PCYDs. Finally, because they love to give back to the community, they gave away 4 pounds of candy. Kilmer Pride Selfie
