SECO PRIDE

05/28/2026

Here is the full proclamation for Pride Month from Duane Gurule Mayor of Rocky Ford!

To say that SECO PRIDE is not influencing people in a positive way and making waves is just dumb. This is proof that with continued persistence we can change peoples hearts and minds!

Thank you Duane and thank you to the city council of Rocky Ford for presenting and approving this monumental document!

THIS IS WHY PRIDE MONTH EXISTS!

Imagine for a moment you are in college minding your business, just for one day to go to the laundry room in your schools apartment complex to do your laundry, and you are brutally attacked just because you existed and that person knew who you were, and simply didn’t like you because you are who you are they had it in their mind they can pick who lives and who doesn’t.

Hatred has no color, no gender, no religion, no organization. Love naturally happens, but hate is taught! Because of fear there are people pushing an agenda while claiming the ones they are training you to fear are pushing the bigger agenda.

We have seen this throughout history, and yet we refuse to learn from it! This is why Pride, Black History, Asian/Pacific Islander History, Mexican Heritage, Indigenous Peoples, Woman’s History Month/Days exists!!!!

RIP JUNIPER BLESSING

We love hearing about people who are making a difference in their communities, and so we want to help present a discord group who is doing just that, by finding and building an online community for young people by young people, no matter how they identify or who they love!

In September, Echo Richards created a Discord group called The Unstoppables to provide a safe space for teens in rural areas of the Eastern Plains region.

Good evening everyone!! So we try our best not to make our event a political event, but this year we cannot stress enough the importance of voting! And we are so glad that our sponsor SECO UNITED will be giving those 18 and up, who are not registered to vote, a chance to register at Pride this year!

The fight for equality is not about political parties, it’s a fight for our very freedom and the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness!

ISO a food truck or two for our event on June 27 from 11-5pm, due to a scheduling mishap our original food truck can’t make it!
Shout out to any one who can fill the spot, we look forward to working with you!

Just to let everyone know please do not be afraid or be upset at the hateful comments you may see on other pages on our posts! Just like before these people are all talk and no action, but we are taking action ahead of time to assure your safety!

We have already hired armed security for the day of the event and they have been given instructions. They also know the names and faces of those who have been harassing us online. We are taking a zero tolerance stance on bullying and harassment of any kind at Pride this year.

YOU ARE PROTECTED BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY AT OUR EVENT!
