BG Teen is an opportunity for teens to socialize in a safe, fun, inclusive & supportive space. You belong here!

SOKY Alliance fosters community, builds support, and promotes advocacy for our local LGBTQ+ community through programming, educational opportunities, and resource connections. Each meeting will be a time for teens to be themselves, meet others and just have some fun. BG Teen is open to all high school teens regardless of race, color, religion, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, national origin, genetics, disability, etc, etc, etc. And while we're at it, we'll use this page to promote other local opportunities for teen involvement.

It has been a whirlwind weekend! Prom, Pride, and now Sonus is having its debut concert today. We hope you'll come out at 4pm to support this new project. With only about 7 rehearsals since starting, this group has come together to create such a special space, bringing music and community together. And what's more beautiful than that?

Before Prom tomorrow, here are some good things to know!

Other than having fun, here are some important FAQs and guidelines:

Are there any age-related requirements?
-This is an event geared toward the younger crowd ages 13+ to have a safe, sober, fun space for BG Pride weekend. All of our under 18 folks, please be prepared to sign in with an emergency contact number.

Can I leave and come back?
-For safety reasons, once you’re in, you’re in. And once you’re out, you’re out. No readmittance.

What should I wear?
-Costumes are encouraged! But if yours covers your face, please prepare to put that on AFTER you are checked in. We need to see your face first for check-in.
You can also wear your snazziest prom attire or your everyday clothes. Come as you are!

What about *enter substance here*?
-This is a completely substance-free event, throughout the whole property indoors and outdoors. Yes, that means your v**e. No smoking/vaping/drinking/drugs/etc. allowed. Period.

I don’t feel great, but I really want to come. What do I do?
-If you aren’t feeling well, please consider staying home to take care of yourself and also others who will be present.

Who do I ask if I need help?
-If you have any issues during the event, our volunteers will be wearing yellow volunteer lanyards, so seek them out!

Can I purchase my ticket at the door?
-Yes! If you bring cash, please bring the exact amount as we’ll have limited cash for change. You can also pay via Venmo or with a card.

Let’s all work together for a safe and fun event!
